First Officer William Murdoch was in charge of the ship when it crashed.

Captain Smith was the official captain, but Murdoch was, I believe, in charge at the moment. Many people don't know that the damage would have not been as much if they collided with the berg head-on. Titanic probably would have stayed afloat long enough for most to survive and for help to arrive.
