They need an order to abandon ship for this game in case you take too much damage, in which case a cutscene plays showing you either being rescued (and being taken a POW, depending on who does the rescuing) or lost adrift at sea. Maybe show the crew launching the liferafts and putting lifejackets on before actually abandoning. Maybe give YOU the choice to go down with your ship, while the crew abandons. Far-fetched, but a man can dream.

I think as your boat floods, however, water should be shown filling up the interior, with stuff bobbing around and such. I mean that in a critical way- as in it's GOT to make it into the final product. The cutscenes and such I can do without, though.
