Drown is used where when we are talking about living bodies. Drown means someone is suffocating underwater and dies.
As a living bodies cannot sink same as a non-living bodies cannot drown.
So, I thing "C" is the correct option.

Could it be "sank into " instead of the use of in?

The boat sank, 15 passengers drowned. So sank used for object and drown used for suffocating any person.

No need to use two verbs, got, drowned both second verbs so never exist.
