All twenty of Titanic's lifeboats were used one way or another, including the overturned boat B. Some went underfilled but two were discharged with 70 people: boats #11 and #15.

If all the lifeboats were completely filled, there would be seats enough for only 1,178 people (out of 2,208).

Were there enough lifeboats on the titanic for all passengers?

This is more of a random fact, but the reason why there weren't enough boats on the Titanic was because a few years before a boat had sunk and there were too many life boats, so the designers only outfitted life boats on the Titanic for decoration more than anything else, as they thought it would never sink. The Titanic was designed to hold 32 lifeboats, it was eventually paired down to twenty. Lifeboat number 6 was designed to hold 65 people. For more info visit the link below.
