If the answer to either of those was "No", then what was the weather like? If you cripple a ship but then it is sunk by bad weather, you might not be rewarded for the sinking.
No, it was clearly sunk by the bombs aimed in my general direction. I'm just annoyed that my AA mount appeared to have zero effect besides lighting a few fires on deck. It is suppose to be a 20mm, which is still going to rip a nice little hole at the water line of an unarmoured ship.

What is the longest a ship can stay dead in the water with one end dipping below the waves before it sinks? I've never stuck around to see if a boat can recover and take off again, and will usually just shove another fish under it to get the tonnage.
