LIFEBOAT
Lionel Lukin was a pioneer in the construction of the modern unsinkable lifeboat.
While he was working as a London coachbuilder, Lukin began experimenting with a
Norwegian yawl in 1784, testing his alterations in the River Thames. In 1785 he patented his
method of constructing small boats that would not sink even when filled with water. He used
watertight compartments, cork, and other lightweight materials.
