No, he could not have done a better job in the midst of the time of the incident. He did what he was trained to do. He had about 39 seconds to avoid the ice. We do know now that if they hit head on, the ship would most likely have remained afloat. However, Murdoch was trying to avoid any contact whatsoever. Little did he know that they rudder was too small and that the fast she went(He reversed the engines) the more quickly she would turn.
