From one of your links. If you are already leaking and listing 15 degrees I think it difficult to launch life boats from such a vessel as they appear stowed.

I read “listing 15*” before losing engine power to rolling 60* one way and 30 degrees the other, once they were adrift beam to the seas.

Then the roll increases, until they keel over, and sink.

They will find the ship on the bottom, probably turtled.
