Ship sinking (She's going down sir!)

Hi,

Thanks in advance for help!

I am trying to understand the game mechanics - if I torpedo a boat (with a hit) and I don't get the message "She's going down sir!" from my officer, does that mean this ship will not sink, or does it mean she may sink, but its not yet certain, you should wait and see...?

If she may sink, what is a reasonable amount of time to wait and see if she sinks, and what would be silly, and a second torpedo would definitely be the answer (assuming any non-dud torps left)

if it makes any difference am playing TMO 2.5.

Thanks again!
