It seems like it would be extremely simple to set up a compact airbag system on a ship that would essentially make it impossible to sink even with a massive hull breach. It seems like this could be done easily on small boats to large ships and everything in between. Any ideas why something like this isn't being used? I would have a hard time believing I'm the first person to think of this. They even use large inflatable air bags to raise sunken ships.

If they were integral then the cost of boats would go up more than the risk of sinking is worth I would guess. Probably wouldn't sell well. But an add on system for high risk boats perhaps may have a niche.
