At high frequency, the leading terms in the virtual mass and wavemaking coefficients for a heaving, axisymmetric body depend only on the limit potential (Rhodes‐Robinson, 1971). Here this result is applied to closed and open tori and solutions found in closed form. Some numerical values of the coefficients are tabulated.
