The Britannic sank in only 395 feet of water, a depth less than half her length. Therefore the ship could not have reached a perpendicular before it made its final plunge. The time was 9:07 a.m., roughly 45 minutes after the single deadly explosion that had interrupted a routine morning.
By the morning Britannic was steaming at full speed (around 21 knots) into the Kea Channel, between the islands of Makronissos (to her port side) and the island of Kea (to her starboard side). In the dining room breakfast was served after an early mass held by Rev. John Fleming, one of the ship's chaplains.
