I did see one reference in prior posts about killing several enemies on board, I dont know how this could be unless they waited for the helmsman to respawn (assuming they do) after defeating him.

Aye, there should be a helmsman/captain/etc on every enemy ship, not just the flags. They will re-spawn but it takes about minute for them to do so. It is easier to knock them down for a flag but with enough precision, one should be able to take out whoever is on deck with cannons while fighting (sometimes a broadside will hit them by accident).
