Short history of early life jackets

https://www.kotuia.org.nz/korero-stories/a-short-history-of-early-lifejackets-and-the-nz-design-which-saved-countless-lives/

"The cork life jackets were effective if worn, but their stiff and bulky design meant that most seamen found them difficult to work in.

There were no life preservers on board the HMS Orpheus when it ran aground on the sandbar at the entrance to Auckland’s Manukau Harbour in 1863. The ship’s lifeboats weren’t sufficient for a mass rescue and 189 of the 259 men drowned — mostly British soldiers on their way to New Zealand to fight in the Waikato Land Wars.

Not long after the accident, the mother of one of the men presumed drowned gave birth to a daughter. The baby, named Orpheus, grew up keenly aware of the dangers of the sea. The family immigrated to New Zealand in 1870 and Orpheus later married a mariner. Two tragic events in 1912 — the drowning of another brother off the Otago coast and the sinking of the Titanic — motivated Orpheus to design a life preserver from a new material, kapok. When travelling across the Pacific with her husband, she had observed the floatation qualities of a fibre found in the seedpod of the kapok tree.

Her design was a cotton vest filled with kapok fibre that was easy to put on in an emergency. Named the ‘Salvus’ (Latin for 'safe'), it was approved by the British Board of Trade in 1918 and was mass-produced around the world.

The Salvus was worn by the British Navy and was widely adopted by ships and steamer services all over the world.

However being a natural fibre, kapok was prone to deterioration particularly in damp conditions. And the canvas outer shell, though sturdy, had the downside of being rough on the skin and often caused chafing. These issues prompted the invention of a new style of life jacket which became standard issue during the Second World War.
