Changes: Lifeboat 7

Revision as of 08:08, 14 September 2015

Although there was a capacity of 65 people, it left with only 28 people on board, thus with 37 empty seats. The reason why was that many women and children were reluctant to enter a small wooden lifeboat and preferred to stay on the massive 'unsinkable', but sinking, Titanic.

These 28 people did board the lifeboat:
