Not sinking (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

afloat

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">not sinking</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for afloat that I've seen before include "Out of debt; at sea" , "Borne on the water" , "On board at sea, on ship" , "Buoyed" , "Buoyant: solvent" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, The Guardian, the New York Times, The Mirror, The Telegraph, the Family Time and the Ink Well xwords.
