Lusitania engines produced 68,000-horse power average speed over 25 knots and "Greyhound of the Seas" she soon captured the Blue Ribbon for the fastest Atlantic crossing. installation of ammunition magazines and gun mounts on her decks. The mounts, concealed under the teak deck, were ready for the addition of the guns when needed. 1915, the Lusitania was at New York, being loaded with meat, medical supplies, copper, cheese, oil and machinery, but she was also secretly being loaded with munitions for Britain for the war.

German Warning NOTICE! Travelers intending to embark on the Atlantic voyage are reminded that a state of war exists between Germany and her allies and Great Britain and her allies; that the zone of war includes the waters adjacent to the British Isles; that, in accordance with formal notice given by the Imperial German Government, vessels flying the flag of Great Britain, or any of her allies, are liable to destruction in those waters and that travellers sailing in the war zone on ships of Great Britain or her allies do so at their own risk. IMPERIAL GERMAN EMBASSY WASHINGTON, D.C., APRIL 22, 1915.

Lusitania On May 7, the ship neared the coast of Ireland. At 2:10 in the afternoon a torpedo fired by the German submarine U 20 slammed into her side. A mysterious second explosion ripped the liner apart. Chaos reigned.

Lusitania The ship tilted to the right side at an angle of 25°. The power suddenly failed, The watertight doors in the ship could not be closed unless there was power. The wireless room had to run on battery power to tap out its S.O.Ss. As a result of the list (tilt) of the ship, the lifeboats on the port (left) side could not be launched. As the lifeboats were lowered they dragged on the rivets, which threatened to seriously damage the boats before they landed in the water. The starboard-side boats were swung out so far as a result of the list that many passengers had to jump from the deck to the lifeboats, risking falling into the water many storeys below. Many crew members panicked and a few lifeboats were launched that contained only crew members. Other lifeboats capsized, and one or two were damaged when the torpedo hit the ship. Although the Lusitania had adequate lifeboats for all on board, most lifeboats simply could not be launched. The Lusitania sank below the waves shortly before 2:00pm. It sank in 90 meters of water, and since the Lusitania was 239 meters long, the bow (front of the ship) hit the bottom of the ocean while the stern was still up in the air. Most passengers never had a chance. Within 18 minutes the giant ship slipped beneath the sea. One thousand one hundred nineteen of the 1,924 aboard died. The dead included 128 Americans.
