Lost control of ship in instance

Greetings, hoping for a bit of feedback.

I've recently returned to the game after being away for many years. I ran into a situation in an instance, fighting 1 v 1 with an NPC to complete a mission. I was getting set to board them, came up along side, hit the "G" key to start the boarding process, then I effectively had no controls. The ship was stopped in the water, sails all retracted, whilst my adversary sailed on.

I tried various key commends (including G key again), and nothing would work. Could get the ship moving again, no control over the guns, all I was able to do was just scroll in my view ever close to the ship with the mouse wheel. Finally I just existed out of the game.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Edit: I forgot to mention, did notice my ping seemed normal. However it's possible this was simply a server crash/disconnect of some sort as I did not try logging back in right away.

Greetings Captain. 

Unfortunately it is hard to tell anything without a screenshot or F11 report. Perhaps you exprienced a temporary connection problems

Thanks for the feedback.

I think you may be on the right track. I logged back in after making this post, and I was still at the location of the battle, which might suggest a connection issue. If it happens again I'll be to get an F11 report and screenshot.
