Life rings are called lifebuoys but can be called other names such as safety wheel, lifebelt, water wheely, lifesaver, donut, or Kisbee ring. (Named after inventor Thomas Kisbee (1792–1877), a British naval officer.)

Before Kisbee’s invention, many people used a crude cork belt or jacket to prevent seafarers from drowning.

Furthermore, Leonardo da Vinci sketched a concept for a lifebuoy around the 15th century. In addition, he also drew balancing sticks and buoyant shoes for walking on water.

Lifebuoys have seen various upgrades and innovations throughout their history. Now, personalized life rings for boats may be brightly colored and are often decoratively painted.
