1,228 if all boats were filled to capacity.
The lifeboats on Titanic were not filled to capacity but they did hold 712 survivors.
About 1,200
Two boats were filled with 70 people. Lifeboats #11 and #15.
The Titanic carried 20 lifeboats with a total seating capacity of 1,178 people
the capacity of the boats on Titanic was 1,178. 2,208 people were sailing her the night of the sinking. If all seats were occupied, then 1030 people would still be on Titanic (as opposed to the 1,496 that really were).
Titanic's fourteen standard lifeboats, at 30 ft. long, could fit about 70 people if need be. The two cutters and four Englehardts were slightly smaller and thus could carry slightly fewer people.
about 40 to 50 people
The full sized lifeboats could hold 65 people and the collapsible lifeboats could hold 40 people.
I believe 15 or 20
Sadly, the Titanic didn't have enough lifeboats, which is part of why so many people died. According to a thorough Wikipedia article, and verified with other historical sources, "Titanic carried a total of 20 lifeboats: 14 standard wooden Harland and Wolff lifeboats with a capacity of 65 people each and four Englehardt "collapsible" lifeboats ... with a capacity of 47 people each." I enclose a link to tell you more.
Fourteen main lifeboats with a capacity for 65 people each two emergency sea boats 40 occupants each. four collapsible boats 47 each that adds up to total of 20 boats on Titanic. If all the lifeboats were filled to it's maxium capacity, there would only have been room in them for 1178 people. half of them will die...
There were 712 survivors of Titanic in the lifeboats.
