Sergbuto has created a lifeboat mod, but it's still a WIP. It consisted of a wooden boat with two survivors (those life-jacketed armed guards you see on the ships' decks). <Quick search of site bought this up
It is on serg site but no download link whereas the others on there have

I think he said it's actually a unit like any other ship - it cannot be scripted to spawn after a ship is torpedoed.

I wonder what happened to the theory/idea that maybe the boxes that pop off as the ships go down could be changed/modded so as to be lifeboats - it sounded like that might be a real possibility, but I assume it must not have worked or we'd have lifeboats by now

Honestly that was what i orginally thought the lifeboat mod was. The thing is, are those crates sprites, or real 3d objects? Either way it would require a bit of artwork on the part of the modder to replace the existing sprite or 3d wireframe object with a homemade one. Then again, lifeboats are rendered on some ships, and i think they do fly off on their own, (such as higgens boats) but they just sink to the bottom along with everythign else.
