it can survive of course. depends on the size of the flooding compartment and its cargo. But all compartments can take more water then in stock. means you dont need to fill 4 or 5 compartments to sink a vessel. one or two will do as i said depends on their size and cargo.
example. you hit a ship under first mast. The compartment fills with water in about 30 minutes but that alone is not enough to sink the ship. But because the bow of the ship is now completely below the water line, more water is coming over the deck into other compartments, making them flooding too and finely sinking the ship.
