They are not underpowered. It took the US Navy way more than 7 torpedoes to sink the Yamato. Don't forget you're talking about the biggest warship in the world at that time. Even the Iowa class did not come close to the tonnage of the Yamato. And most of that tonnage was made up of its big, thick armour belt.
Secondly, what year did you sink her in? At the start of the war, torpedoes used TNT, not the more powerful torpex.
7 torpedoes sounds to me like you managed to sink it efficiently.
