Solved Stuck in sail mode

[ScruffyTheJanitor]

I can't access the world map, I can't moor when near a friendly port, I can't even get to the deck. There is nowhere to go in the "sail to" submenu. How do I get out of here? Normally I would load a save, but I just captured a pinnace with a sloop and I don't want to lose it.

Turns out there was an enemy ship around a cliff that I couldn't see. They boarded me and I died and had to reload a save.

Dang. Well, glad you figured it out. Happy hunting!
