Lifeboats typically have a speed range of 6 to 20 knots, depending on their size and design. Most modern lifeboats are designed for quick deployment and can reach speeds of around 15 knots in calm conditions. Their speed is balanced with stability and safety to ensure effective rescue operations. Additionally, specific lifeboat models may vary in performance based on their intended use.

Lifeboat number 1 carried 5 passengers and 7 crew members, making it a total of 12 people. The lifeboat's capacity was about 45. It was later speculated that the 5 passengers, since they were mostly all from one family, had bribed Officer Murdoch (the officer who launched the boat) to give them a lifeboat all to themselves. This family, the Duff-Gordons, later paid all the crew members in the lifeboat for their lost wages and supplies when the ship sank, and thus people took this as a bribe. In truth, there was no bribery, it was simply kindness taken out of context by the media, and Officer Murdoch launched the boat because the ship was starting to sink fast, and no other people were nearby. He had to get the next lifeboat ready. So, lifeboat 1 had the fewest people, with 12 passengers and crew.
