Not sure if this is 100% correct although it came from a reliable colleague of the Captain, but they had a prop overspeed on one engine, and while securing that the other flamed out. Tried to relight but heights and speeds conspired against them and the ditching followed.

No doubt there are a lot more details, and perhaps this is not quite accurate, but a slightly different version of events to contemplate.
