The best theory/presumption I've heard is the nautical equivalent of high-centering. If the huge swells in a big storm could be so spaced apart, that the bow of the ship was supported and the stern was supported, but the middle was hanging there between the swells....broken in half ship hull.
The mind-blower to me is, it sank in 530 feet of water. That's plenty deep, but if it had somehow dived down nose first and stuck on the bottom without breaking up, another 500 feet of the ship would have been sticking straight up out of the water.
