Ice is a seasonal hazard in the unforgiving winter seas of the North 
Atlantic,
and in the couple of days since leaving Southampton, many ships had reported 
ice
in the exact area into which Titanic would be sailing. On the 11th April, 
she
received 6 warnings from ships stopped in, or passing through, heavy ice, 5 
more
on the 12th, 3 more on the 13th, and 7 on the 14th. All of these messages 
would
have been written down as they were intercepted, logged in the radio book, 
and
passed on to the officers on the bridge. There was now no way that the 
Captain,
along with the officers, would have been unaware of the huge field of ice 
that
now lay directly in front of Titanic.

Everyone can draw their own conclusions. The Titanic did, in fact, change 
course.
