Titanic lifeboat 7. The orientation of the objects in Titanic's lifeboats is that the vertical structure was toward the nearest boat end.

2. Although they were part of the lifeboat equipment, I have never seen any photo showing a hatchet stowed on these objects. (The Titanic had canceled its scheduled lifeboat drill earlier in the day, and the crew was unaware that the davits had been tested in Belfast.)

7, 5, 3, 8, 1, 6, 16, 14, 12 and 9, 11, 13, 15, 2, 4 and 10, D, A and B (floated off ship). Jack was rescued by a lifeboat and boarded the Carpathia around 7:30 a.m. His mother waited with joy at the top of the ladder, but her relief turned to sadness when she realized her husband had not survived. Titanic carried a total of 20 lifeboats, but Alexander Carlisle, one of the managing directors at Harland and Wolff, had suggested using a new type of larger davit, which could handle more boats, giving Titanic the potential of carrying 48 lifeboats, providing more than enough seats for everybody on board. They produced detailed plans which included the capacities of the lifeboats she was fitted with originally (the same as Titanic) and the numbers came to a total lifeboat capacity 1.

The fourth boat lowered on the starboard side. Titanic Lifeboat Depth Measurement Figure 5 The capacity of a boat could be most accurately be determined by an equation known as Titanic emergency lifeboat 1.

There was no disturbance near this boat. Murdoch, Pitman and possibly Ismay were near it when lowered. It is different than the Nomadic lifeboat arrangement. The first lifeboat lowered on the starboard side. The lifeboat itself was also taken aboard Carpathia to New York; in New York the boat was amongst those boats of Titanic that were landed in New York at White Star’s pier 59, the place were Titanic was supposed to berth. Thirteen of Titanic’s lifeboats were picked up by Carpathia and taken to Pier 59 in New York, the place where Titanic was supposed to dock. After getting to the lifeboat, the crew discovered the bodies of two firemen who worked in Titanic’s engine room and a first class passenger still dressed in his dinner attire, identified later as Thomson Beattie.

There was no order, according to some passengers, for ''women and children first.'' When RMS Titanic collided with an iceberg at 11.40pm on April 14, 1912, he was off duty in his bunk, but soon ordered for his bakers to send 50 loaves of bread to the lifeboats, before enjoying some liquor in his room. Lifeboat 7 was a wooden starboard lifeboat and the first one to be lowered from the sinking Titanic.
