It's also possible that the force of a near-miss above your boat drove it deeper - below crush depth (just as a near miss below can drive it up).

Not sure if it's modeled in the game, but I keep at least 25' above where I think my crush-depth might be for that reason. I've taken my Sargo to 370' in tests. In combat, 320 is as deep as I'll go.
