Does anyone know how many officers actually saw the iceberg? Boxhall was on duty and he said - "I would not swear to seeing it." 6th officer Moody was also on duty but we know he did not see the iceberg because Pitman said the following - "I walked along to the after end of the boat deck, and met Mr. Moody, the sixth officer. I asked him if he had seen the iceberg. He said no; but he said, "There is some ice on the forward well deck." Does this mean the only officer who saw the iceberg was Murdoch? Would Chief officer Wilde have seen the iceberg? It appears the incident happened so fast that nobody knew what had struck them until it actually passed by. e.g.
Boxhall
