Turns out I have no idea how to write an action scene. At all.

There is plenty of information about how pirates boarded ships, but nothing about how they actually got the captain and crew to surrender. So I'm on my own for that part.

I've decided to call the fic Ghost Ship, for lack of a better title.

I wish I had more faith in my writing skills.

There are a couple of other accounts of ships' crews who fought back (often by shutting themselves into the superstructure of the ship and using it as a fortress from which to fire out onto the deck) which I can have a go at summarising if that would be relevant.
