You've done enough damage to sink her, and hung around long enough for that fact to be confirmed. That's all you need to do to get the credit.

... someone on your boat must "witness" and confirm the sinking, and report it to you (whether you're watching/hearing it happen with your own eyes/ears or not). That's how you know that the game has credited you with the kill. A kill you don't witness is a kill that didn't happen as far as the game (and your renown score) is concerned.



I always thought it was a simple matter of distance. SHIII continues to amaze me with what it models.
