Default how to make sinking slow?

i knew there is an option in "realistic" setup to make ships sinking slower, but it is still too fast.
i like the way GWX do it, how do they make it?

and another question:
if i make a ship heavily wounded, it will sink after 10 hours on my watch. But i didn't follow it. i sail away, outside the 16km sphere.
now how the game engine handle this ship? the ship will sink after 10 oz, or it keep "wounded" forever?

To make ships sinking slower, you have to edit the Data/zones.cfg, and increase the different flooding values for small merchants etc

If you only damage a ship, and he sails away, once passed the spawning km radius he will unspawn and will not be credited
