C Correct answer
Explanation

The error is in part C: "got drowned" is incorrect usage. Ships "sink" rather than "drown" - "drown" typically refers to living beings (humals or animals) dying from inhaling water. The correct phrasing would be "got sunk" or "sank". Parts A and B are grammatically correct.
