Cant take control of cannons anymore either it seems. Was on board a skeleton ship last night, got the green circles and everything, but it wouldnt work.
In SvS, the game seems to get particularly confused if someone from the enemy team (on an enemy ship) joins your crew. If they have the highest health points, they take over the crew whenever the crew leader goes offline. Since the crew leader is now on the enemy team, no one on board the ship can man their cannon. (Well, the boat owner can grab a cannon OR steer. But noone else.)

Pretty rare, but can happen. And people said the spy-counter-spy aspect was good? Grrrr.
