As for merchants (and other breakable vessels), please have a look at the damage models of the fore and aft hull halves. You will be astonished how many sphere you find there ... the main model of all breakable ship have usually just very few spheres close to the position where the hull is supposed to split.
Spheres only define the shape of objects that can collide with other objects.

I understand.
BTW, I am having a little trouble getting the model to tilt when it gets hit on one side.
In most tests she sinks on an even keel. I want to model the longitudinal bulkheads with the .zon boxes (these were responsible for the great loss of life, because they prevented most port lifeboats from being used). Back to the drawing board (or is it the dat file??)
EDIT: Got it! The boxes marked as "NFlotMain" were too low in the hull. Now I'm getting the historical sinking, with the heavy list to Starboard.
