I doubt it. There would be a debris field. If you had 20 minutes to sink your boat, could you do it?
Unless you put a hole at the bow and stern, the bow of the boat would stick up and not go completely under. This is just based from every accident I have seen personally. It seems every V and Cat have the front of the boats holding it up.
Who has the necessary tools onboard to sink their boat? I dont.
The lake isn't deep at all. I dont think there is anywhere more than 75 feet deep. Most of it is 30-35 feet deep.
Law enforcement was searching the lake heavily. They would have seen some sort of debris field from a boat sinking. He didn't have time to secure everything for a sinking.
My OPINION....
The police on the water were searching hard while the guy was back on the trailer and backing it into the garage. My OPINION is that the 2 agencies, meaning the one on the water and the city PD were not talking together too well early on. I have no proof or any info on this, but to me it is the only theory that makes sense. He got off the water and the local PD was not looking for him yet. From the ramp to a garage in Havasu could be as little as 3-5 minutes if he launched close to where he keeps the boat.
Lake Havasu PD is completely different than the agencies on the water. On the water, you also have a CA agency and an AZ agency because the lake sits on the border.
