"It matters that they tried."

All of Carpathia's lifeboats were swung out ready for deployment. Oil was set up to be poured off the sides of the ship in case the seas turned choppy; oil would coat and calm the water near Carpathia if that happend, making it safer for lifeboats to draw up alongside her. He ordered lights to be rigged along the side of the ship so survivors could see it better, and had nets and ladders rigged along her sides ready to be dropped when they arrived, in order to let as many survivors as possible climb aboard at once.

I don't know if his making provisions for there sill being survivors in the water was optimism or not. I think he knew they were never going to get there in time for that. I think he did it anyway because, god, you have to hope.

Carpathia had three dining rooms, which were immediately converted into triage and first-aid stations. Each had a doctor assigned to it. Hot soup, coffee, and tea were prepared in bulk in each dining room, and blankets and warm clothes were collected to be ready to hand out.

By this time, many of the passengers were awake - prepping a ship for disaster relief isn't quiet - and all of them stepped up to help, many donating their own clothes and blankets.

And THEN he did something I tend to refer to as Diverting All Power From Life Support.

Here's the thing about steam ships: they run on steam. Shocking, I know; but that steam powers EVERYTHING on the ship, and right now, the Carpathia needed power. So Rostron turned off hot water and central heating, which bled valuable steam power, to everywhere BUT the dining rooms - which, of course, were being used to make hot drinks and receive survivors. He woke up all the engineers, all the stokers, and all the firemen, diverted ALL that steam back into the engines, and asked his ship to go as fast as she possibly could.

And then when she'd done that, he asked her to go faster.

I need you to understand that you simply cannot push a ship very far past its top speed. Pushing that much sheer tonnage through the water becomes harder with every extra knot past the speed it was designed for. Pushing a ship past its rated speed is not only reckless - its difficult to maneuver - but it puts an incredible strain on the engines. Ships are not DESIGNED to exceed their top speed by even one knot. They cannot do it. It cannot be done.

Carpathia's absolute do-or-die, the-engines-cannot-take-this-forever top speed was fourteen knots. Dodging icebergs, in the dark and cold, surrounded by mist, she SUSTAINED a speen of almost seventeen and a half.

No one would have asked this of them. It wasn't expected. They were almost sixty miles away, with icebergs in their path. They had a responsibility to respond; they did NOT have a responsibility to do the impossible and do it WELL. No one would have faulted them for taking more time to confirm the severity of the issue. No one would have blamed them for a slow and cautious approach.

No one but themselves.

And so many of you guys are taking strength and reassurance from the reminder not only that people are capable of amazing things together, but simply that kindness matter and that a simple, tiny act of compassion is NEVER wasted. I'm just really glad to have been able to do that for some folks.

But if I can just add one personal note; I need to emphasize something I only touched on in the original post. I need to emphasize the Carpathia FAILED.

A lot of the tags and comments of a tinge of despair, or guilt, or wistfulness about things like this happening so rarely. Or inadequacy, or just being overwhelmed or unhappy about not being in a position to step up in a comparable way. And I want to gently bring up the fact that this is still The Sinking Of The Titanic.

They did not get there in time. They did not save the ship. It could be argued that they may not even have saved a single life; we have no way of knowing. This was still a horrific maritime disaster mire in arrogance and incompetence and a lack of care.
