If it can be done how should you do it? Riddling the hull with bullets or shooting its deck cargo?
Thanks in advance!

Hmm... C3... it means you are using vanilla SH3 and not GWX. Vanilla SH3 is mostly based on hit points. If the ship hasn't sunk yet then it won't sink later.
You can try shooting with the AA machine gun. This may accumulate hit points and you may have a very slim chance to sink it. Either the hull or the cargo won't matter, fires won't make a difference either.
On the other hand you could try GWX. With two spaced out torpedos a large merchant will have sunk from flooding within 30 minutes in most cases.
