Asbestos Wings Protect Boat From Flaming Oil on Ocean
Item
Crews of torpedoed tankers frequently find their lifeboats surrounded by a flaming sea of oil. To guard the men in such circumstances, some shipping concerns have fitted asbestos flaps at the sides of the lifeboat which may be turned as shields against the flames. As additional protection the hull of the boat is also covered to the water line.
