If you have the intelligence to fend for yourself, you should.
The classic example, of course, is the Titanic, but what most people forget was that there was almost two hours between the launching of the first lifeboats and the actual sinking. Basically, by the time you know the ship is sinking and that there are not enough lifeboats, you have an hour left.
An hour of free reign of the ship? I'm sure I could come up with something to keep myself alive. Possibly someone else, too. I expect this of myself.
Sinking in five minutes with an arsoned fire onboard? That's not so likely.
