It's a bug/glitch that disney says they are working on. I have yet to find a definite solution. Logging out, restarting, changing servers sometimes works, but not always. The last time it happened to me, I had to wait until the next day, my ship was still out to sea, I was able to TP to it, and land it. Other times I sign back in the next day and the ship is sunk, needs to be repaired. So the solution I guess is to wait it out, and find a friend to take you out sailing. As Disney is fond of saying "Sorry for the inconveinence".

If you remember what server you were on, you can sometimes TP back to your ship. Sometimes. As Rob said, you may have to just wait it out.

If your close enough to a flag ship you can board it and lose the battle and get your ship sunk that way. You must lose though and when they are all level 10 and under it can take awhile.

Yep! Been there in many different ways, I have reported this several times.

If you are able to board it and attract an enemy then let him sink you, if not,,, then you are out of luck!!! I have had me ship locked out for 5-6 hrs up to the next day...

I know what to do to fix this in the meantime:
1. Try as best as you can to remove everyone from your ship. Low level players don't usually respond to this, so try going to the SvS islands, and board your ship from there. Then, boot everyone off.

Most likely cause: Someone boards your ship while at the same time.

How to lower the chances: Turn Public, Guild, Crew and Friend boarding access before landing.

I have not had this happen ( gladly, because I never use Public ), but I've helped people with this bug a lot. Hope I helped you guys.

Well, now there's an even MUCH worse glitch to this:

As some of you may know already, the Firebrand+Flagship=Flagship-Go-Bye math problem is back. This time, you can sink a Flagship with Firebrand at ANY time. Times are:
Before Boarding
While Crippled
Not Grappled yet
After leaving a flagship ( shooting Firebrand at a Flagship you JUST left WILL sink it, but you will still get it's gold )
While a crew is on board

Back to the part where you can shoot Firebrand at a Flagship with a Pirate crew on it. If you somehow know when the Crew is on board the Flagship, you would shoot Firebrand at the Flagship, and it will sink ( shoot ONLY 1 at a time, or you will occasionally get stuck, yourself ). If the Grappling Hook Green Circles appear, you will have to shoot another Firebrand shot to completely finish it ( again, ONLY 1 ). When this happens, the Crew will get sunk with the Flagship, and the crew will get stuck, along with the Ship. The Ship cannot be boarded, and it will not be damaged, nor will ANY ship be engaged to it.

I do not suggest boarding Flagships on an Ideal or Full server, as most Public Ships have players who do not hold their fire, and there's a chance one of those players will use Firebrand.
