Arthur Peuchen said that after his boat was lowered, they went straight, away from Titanic to the North. So, Titanic's hull was like this ____ and boat 6 went away from it in this direction ^, that is away from it at a 90 degree angle ... to the North. This would suggest that the ship was pointing west.
This is one of the many points Sen Molony uses in his new book about the Californian, that if Titanic stopped, and was pointing to the west, had the Californian been looking at Titanic, she should have seen her broad side, and thus should have seen the Titanic look like the picture I posted on another thread ... where in this case, there should have been no mistake in concluding that the ship was a large passenger liner. However, the general suggestion is that Titanic was pointing North, which would suggest that she pointed North throughout the whole night without swinging.
So, if when Titanic stopped she was pointing west, then throughout the night she had to swing anti-clockwise to eventually point North by the time she sank.

PS. Had she been near the Californian, both had to swing in the same direction ... as it appears, they were not.
