Bilge pumps are of no help if a vessel is on its side taking water. By design they are at the lowest point of the bilge and thus would be above where the water was.
The vents on a vessel this size for the genset and a/c are pretty darn big, and it wouldn't take enough water to sink the vessel immediately to keep it on its heeled at 45 degrees and taking on water til it rolled to 90 and sunk.
