Genua Pro is of a slightly shorter model and has split floats, this makes it both comfortable to sit and move in. Zipper on the front and waistband with quick release buckle. Crotch straps are optional. Genoa Pro is suitable for dinghy sailing and kayaking and for regular boating. 50N load-bearing capacity and is classified as a buoyancy aid. A lifejacket that has a carrying capacity of 50 Newtons, is classified as a buoyancy aid and sometimes referred to as a sailing vest. They have a slightly simpler design than lifejackets. A 50N lifejacket keeps you afloat by a good margin but lacks a collar to support your head. It has the buoyancy force more evenly distributed between the front and back and therefore does not guarantee to turn an unconscious person to a supine position. 50N lifejacket is therefore recommended for swimmers who weigh at least 25kg.

The buoyancy of a lifejacket is measured in the Newton unit. A lifejacket must have sufficient buoyancy to keep the user's airways above the surface. The vests are divided into different classes depending on the amount of buoyancy, though the actual Newton's number may vary depending on the size of the vest.
