The last "davit" remaining on the wreck of RMS Titanic. These lifeboat cranes were used to hoist the ship's wooden lifeboats over the side and into the water during Titanic's sinking. Many of the boats launched soon after the sinking were not close to fullpassengers refused to believe the seriousness of the situation.![Titanic_Bow_Underwater]()
The bow of the Titanic rests on the bottom of the North Atlantic, about 400 miles southeast of Newfoundland. A team of scientists will launch an expedition to the Titanic on Aug. 18, 2010, to assess the deteriorating condition of the world's most famous shipwreck.![The port side of the bow section of the Titanic]()
This August 2010 photo provided by RMS Titanic Inc., shows the port side of the bow section.
