I felt like I had caused her to flood more quickly by taking out the smokestack (i kinda picture all sorts of stuff falling back into the engine and stopping the pumps).

It was probably near its HP cap, then. Teddy did extensive testing and you really cannot sink a ship by hitting upper parts of the ship, unless it's near its HP cap and about to blow.
