Sunk Boat

Last time I walked past this boat, it was doing what boats do and floating. This morning the poor thing was half submerged, only prevented from totally sinking by its mooring ropes.
Last night, around nine, while the owner was fixing a door, he heard the sound of running water from the bottom of the boat. He was able to save a few things and his two dogs, but ended up with only the clothes he was wearing.
He was preparing to take the boat to Derby along the Gran Union Canal and only bought the boat some three weeks ago. Very bad luck, for sure. Still, I think the teapot is salvageable!

Did anybody notice you poking holes in the hull of the boat? And were you just wondering how fast it would sink? 
At least the guy was able to save himself and his dogs before the boat sank.

Hopefully he can get the boat fixed, I kind of like it.
