Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I have read nobody is completely certain about the fate of the lifeboats. However, it is suspected that their nameplates were removed after the disaster and that they were transfered to the Olympic.

You are correct, they were put on the Olympic or possibly to other ships afterwards later.

I know the Carpathia returned to New York with 13 of Titanics lifeboats and the rest were set adrift. And if I recall correctly, I read somewhere that Collapsible B was found by one of the ships recovering bodies severely damaged (Possibly hit by another ship). And I agree, to the best of my knowledge, Titanics boats that were recovered ended up on Olympic. Hope this helps a little.

hi i have pictures of the lifeboats been added to the olympic. Aswel i have a picture of them in new york which i will upload for you.

The carpathia left two collapsables but the mount temple picked them up and returned them to white star line. The olympic recieve mostly all the titanics lifeboats as at the time they was a massive shortage of lifeboats after the change in the law of shiiping act meaning they was enouth lifeboat's for everyone on board
