Not sinking (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

afloat

'not sinking' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(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 Telegraph, the King Feature Syndicate, the New York Times, the Ink Well xwords, The Mirror and the Family Time.
