[post_page_title]The life raft[/post_page_title]
Maria Beasley who invented the life rafts in 1882, is actually the owner of 15 other patents. The Philadelphia born was a natural entrepreneur. Her idea was to create an improved life raft that was not only fire proof but also safe and compact. The life raft before Beasley came in the picture was pretty much a plank of wood. She displayed her design in 1884 at the Cotton Centennial Expo in New Orleans. Her many inventions made her a very rich and successful woman.
