    Twisting

    Hello, guys Some testimonies, such as the one given by Caroline Bonnel, suggested that the ship was quite hog-backed at a relatively shallow angle. We all know that the whole ship had a list to port of at least 10 degrees when the bridge went under. When the top deck of a ship starts to get...

    Vertical stern or heavy list to port?

    Hello everyone Well I’ve just watched James Cameron’s new documentary 20 Years Later (which I only found out about earlier) and saw that when they sank the model ship the stern attained a vertical position after the break up like previously shown in the 97 film. But in the 2012 Final Word...

    Port List

    It is interesting that survivors felt a strong list to port and others did not, and some felt the downward tilt and yet others said it was barely noticeable. The timing of these accounts overlapped yet they had different opinions of the tilt and list. I live on a hill which overlooks a harbour...

    The listing sequence

    Soon after the impact with the iceberg, the Titanic started to list to starboard, right? But at some point later, the uneven flooding caused the ship to right herself and then eventually list to port, which remained until just before the final plunge began. Is there a link - or can someone...

    Thayer's account of listturn

    I'm intrigued by Thayer's accounts. He details the movements (accurately??) but I've never seen it depicted in the movies accurately. "He returned to the stateroom (C-68) to get his parents They went to the starboard side of A deck where John B. Thayer senior thought he saw small pieces of...

    List of the ship time spent while sinking

    Hi everyone My question is the following: Which grade had the list of the ship while sinking, first the list to starboard, then, at the end, to port? When exactly did the ship change its list from starboard to port? When were the different portholes flooded? I heard that the D-Deck...

    List & Lifeboats

    Is there a max list that affects launching of lifeboats? I would suspect that if the ship lists more than X degrees to starboard, you can't safely launch on the port side, and vice versa.

    List of the Titanic

    "I then called the attention of our table to the way the Titanic listed to port (I had noticed this before)..." As you probably already guessed this was written by Lawrence Beesley. And, according to him, this 'list' was noticeable prior to the accident. Question before the house: Does...
