Those aboard Titanic were ill-prepared for such an emergency. The ship's lifeboats had only enough space to carry about half of those on board; if the ship had carried her full complement of about 3,339 passengers and crew, only about a third could have been accommodated in the lifeboats.

How many people could go on the life boats in titanic?
The collapsible canvas boats each held 40-47 people; there were 4 collapsible boats aboard the Titanic when she sank. The full size lifeboats seated 60-65 people each, and there were 16 of those aboard the Titanic, that night. The cutters each held 35-40 people, and there were 2 cutters on the ship. It had been suggested that 48 full size boats, 2 cutters, would have been enough to save everyone aboard. This was also suggested to the owners and builders of the Titanic, by boat designers and consultants at the time Titanic was being built, but the suggestion was disregarded by the owners. Not all the boats aboard the ship left the ship with people in them; some went over the side, empty, in the panic and confusion. Not all the boats held the maximum number of people that could fit in them as they pulled away, either. That was probably partly due to panic and confusion, but also due to some people abandoning the ship to save themselves, not worrying about those left behind.
Why did they underfill the boats on the Titanic?
because the crewmen were rushing to get people on the boats they didnt know how much time they had to save people. also the crewmen that were loading the boats didnt believe the capacity of 65 was right they thought the boats would sink, therefore plunging the people in the boats into the icy water, but they could have been filled to the full capacity.
