Hi all,
Just two questions:
After the collision, the engine room telegraphs were rung "half speed ahead". What is this? Is it half maximum speed? Would that make it about 10-12 knots?
Also, what angles abaft the beam would the Titanic's masthead lights, stern light and side lights be "shut out"?
Best wishes
Paul
