You don't really have a choice when boarding; you either fight them all, or die.
The point here is that, so far, I've been encountering endless waves of Spanish Undead--that's endless as in until I log out or let them kill me, a new wave of randomly respawned mobs appears to replace each group I kill.
The first time I spent about 45 minutes on their ship, expecting that sooner or later they were going to let me swing back to my ship...they didn't. After that initial experience, when I realized I was trapped on their ship, I just logged out. I honestly didn't expect going back to my ship to do much; I didn't think it was going to end the boarding process for me, or I would have tried it sooner.
In any case, to escape, I had to kill the ones that boarded my ship, just like I had killed all the waves that respawned while I was over on their ship. I even finally got the rope swinging animation; however, since I was already on my own ship, I just sort of swung around my own ship's main mast and landed at the helm.
EDIT: Incidentally, I posted to share the escape I found; although, I did enjoy getting to fight aboard my own ship for a change too. It isn't doing myself any favors, for either rep or coin, to keep killing wave after wave of gray mobs; however, I was getting tired of the losing the cargo I already had because there wasn't a normal end to the mob respawns after boarding Spanish Undead ships (so far, I've not had it happen when boarding French vessels).
