Why is a hole in a ship much more serious if it is closer to the bottom than it is to the surface?

Usually, all the water surrounding a boat is under the boat and not over the boat. A hole on the deck of a ship is nowhere near all the seawater, since the hole is high up there. A hole in the bottom would be like right next to the water, so the water would flow in and slowly fill up the whole ship, making it less buoyant, and then it will sink.
