This brings up a good question though: why are some of the ships so hard to sink? I have hit with as many as four torps leaving at least one gaping hole in the side and they still keep plugging along!

Another thing that I've noticed is that if you blow a visible hole in a ship then save game, exit, and come back later, then that hole is gone. The ship might still be listing, but there is no evidence of any damage.

Odd you should mention that, after blowing out her engine room but before sinking her (or even de-masting her) I looked all over with the free cam and didn't see any damage at all??!!!?! Didn't save and reload either. There should have been a gigantic gaping hole. After scoring 20+ hits with HE, there were a few holes in the deck, and 1 or 2 along the waterline

Her companion, a Medium Old Split Freighter that I also sank, showed a massive wound from the torpedo. Didn't check her out for deck gun hits as she went down quickly.
