Why did the owners of the Lusitania believe that it could not be sunk by German submarines?
People believed the Lusitania couldn't be sunk by German submarines partly because the Lusitania was the fastest ocean liner at the time (it's top speed was about 23 knots). This speed was fast enough to outrun any German submarine at the time. Submarines from that time period were extremely slow, especially when submerged. Their top speed when submerged was less than 10 knots. By the time a German submarine would aim to shoot a torpedo, people believed the Lusitania would've already outran it and be out of the U-boat's maximum torpedo range.
