Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

After the bell being sunk, the boat steered right toward inchcape roch, hitting it and destroying the hull. This causes the boat to sink as the waves rolled in. If they still had the bell, they could have used it as a navigational aid, as it was dark at night when the accident occurred.

Hello!

The answer to your question is C.

Sir Ralph's ship hits the Inchcape rock and sinks.

During one storm, after Sir Ralph had removed the bell, his ship was sailing looking for potential wrecks he could plunder. In the darkness and the absence of the bell as a navigational aid, Sir Ralph's ship struck Inchcape Rock and the waves rushed in through the damaged hull causing the ship to sink.

~Hope this answers your question!~
