What is the safest way to float your small craft capsizes?

If you have no flotation device and if you are unable to remain holding onto the capsized craft:Strip off your trousers;Knot the ankles;Fill the legs with air--flip the trousers to catch air...practice this in a swimming pool;Put the crotch in the middle of your chest letting the inflated legs extend up under your arms.If no trousers or they leak air too fast, minimize the energy you have to expend to breathe by:Float, face down, with arms and legs extended. Face away from the wind direction.When ready to breathe, lower arms to your side and give a single kick with your legs. This propels your head out of the water.Take a breath then relax into the previous position.
