Default Seacraft sinks off Martha's Vineyard

This sinking seems very odd to me.These guys say that they noticed a small leak,and the boat sank within 15 seconds after they noticed the leak.
How can a small leak sink a boat in 15 seconds?It had to be a bigger leak,a busted thru-hull fitting perhaps?
And why in the heck would you go out with a non functioning bilge pump?
Maybe it's me but do these guys look a little too calm for people who just had their boat sink and are adrift at sea?.
It looks like they are kinda laughing.

I mean no offense to them and I'm glad they were rescued,thank god for that,but something seems strange about it to me.
