I considered that. I don't recall the depth but I think it's even shallower then your estimates. My defense is that the pin sheared or broke the aluminium casing at the trim hinge. A twisting force would have applied considerable torque it wasn't designed to hold.

If we ever see it again we'll know what clues to look for.

We could also assume that the sea strainer hose broke. That would let in a lot of water. But would not account for the key being on.
