Titanic Lifeboat No. 1 was a lifeboat from the steamship Titanic. It was the fifth boat launched to sea, over an hour after the liner collided with an iceberg and began sinking on 14 April 1912 . With a capacity of 40 people, it was launched with only 12 aboard, the fewest to escape in any one boat that night.
The 28-foot x 8-foot 3¼-ton lifeboat was of conventional RNLI construction, with double diagonal mahogany planking on solid grown oak frames. A single 20-hp Hyland petrol-engine, in a watertight engine-room, powered the single-screw, and provided a top speed of 7.5 knots, with a range of 40 miles.
