Seawater has a greater buoyant force than fresh water because seawater has a higher density than fresh water therefore the buoyancy is higher.

*Improved*

This happens because when water mixes with the salt in sea water, the density changes to the average density which is around 1.55 g/mL (Average density is the density of different materials put to together )
