Invention of the Lifeboat.

The most effective means of life
saving in the event of a storm is the
lifeboat, the first one of which was
launched on the Thames on January
4, 1885, by Lionel Lukin, a coach
maker of an inland town near Lon
don. The first lifeboat was a Norway
yawl, which he had fitted with water
tight compartments, a heavy iron keel
and other essentials in buoyancy and
stability, which are the cardinal and
requisite features of lifeboats now.
