The full sized lifeboats could hold 65 people and the collapsible lifeboats could hold 40 people.
The lifeboats on Titanic were not filled to capacity but they did hold 712 survivors.
This is more of a random fact, but the reason why there weren't enough boats on the Titanic was because a few years before a boat had sunk and there were too many life boats, so the designers only outfitted life boats on the Titanic for decoration more than anything else, as they thought it would never sink. The Titanic was designed to hold 32 lifeboats, it was eventually paired down to twenty. Lifeboat number 6 was designed to hold 65 people. For more info visit the link below.
Titanic carried 20 lifeboats and they could hold 52% of the people on board. That was more lifeboat capicity than the law at the time required!
Nein. Her capacity was 3,327, including the crew.

In the Titanic each life boat could hold up to 6757564 people, so in my opinion the film is stupid as they didn't save everybody!

The capacity was 2,415 passengers and 892 crew.

Dispite having the potential to carry enough to hold everyone on board, the decision was made to only carry enough to hold 52% of the people if they were filled to capacity which they weren't.
14 full size, 4 collapsible and 2 smaller lifeboats.
No. The Titanic was able to hold 3547 people when fully loaded. No ship has ever been able to hold 50,000 people.
