It's been stated the time for getting the boats ready and lowering them, but how many emn did it take to lower one single boat into the water, or actually for the whole process of preparing it?
Reading testimonies of the AB's, sometimes they mention one man at each boat end's davits, but there are also accounts that claim helping lower a particular boat which concludes in more than two men working on that.
