Appears to be poor boat maintenance to me. Got to keep a check on bilge pumps and float switches along with a good battery set up if you leave your boat in the water.
All the more reason to raise the floors on these boats. Mounting these heavier four strokes just puts the floor level too close to the water level.
Hatches in the floor also need to be maintained, as in checking for sealing when closed.
Especially the one located in the splash wells.
Any boat will sink if not maintained and 100% will sink only if in the water
It's the same reason when I do my builds or redos I put my bilge access on the vertical bulkhead at the stern.
Looking at the pic of that boat in the water shows the waterline really high as compared to the floor level.
