Do you at least get a box over your chat box that says looking...not found? or something simular. If you do not see text that says it is looking and didn't find something then it isn't counting whatever you just took out.
The short answer is no, you do not have to be sailing normally to get credit for a quest item as long as you were on board the whole time and some say you need to get at least one cannon shot in on it, but that is hit and miss too I'm sure.
