Story in there that to me looks to be almost the same situation but with a better ending. Most important that everyone is okay but it is a shame to see that happen to what looks to be a very nice and well kept boat.

destroyer, had a boat go under a dock at low tide and get trapped when the tide came back in. only thing above water was the bow. we used a chain hoist strapped to a tree and pulled it up on the hill. could not believe when the transom finally came up, the bilge pump was pumping away.

Nobody seemed too frantic about bailing her out.
They must have better insurance than I do.

Insurance? You got insurance?
 Monkey Butler, what a great read. Ditch Bag is something I don't have, Yet! Reading that really gave me a few ideas. What if three out of four men moved to the bow, shifted as much weight fore as possible. That very well could have saved the vessel from capsizing. It didn't appear out of control when the last diver got aboard. All speculation, I know..

Something I noticed in Monkey Butler's post was the Pry out deck access hatches that popped out with the water/air pressure of a flooded bilge.
Screw in types would be preferred.
