Dex will walk up to the main deck and observe. Does he know anything about the government and why they would be boarding? Is it regular or specific to this ship or crew?
At this point he will not intervene unless someone is in grave danger of death and will listen to see if he can figure out why the boarding.
"STAND DOWN!" Dex doesn't wait for a response before stepping forward. "I have no quarrel with the people of the coast and I don't know what charges you have against 3 Earrings but everyone on this vessel is alive because of her just days before." Waiting a moment to see how that goes over he continues... "The entire isle of Flora Isle has been lost. It seems a Sahuagin has some mystical item that can create an earthquake and sunk the entire isle. Assuming the charges are lawful and true surely your laws allow atonement for service. I ask for time. I have no quarrel with you but this is a quest I have been given by She who makes the path and I will see it through. That still requires the services of 3 Earrings."
Waiting a moment he continues "If I did not witness it with my own eyes and fight the creatures myself I would not believe it either but take a moment and ask these villagers. There must be a compromise to be had."

"You don't. But she has pledged herself to this mission in a way by asking my service. I intend to hold her to that."

"The villagers are left on Bisaft Isle. It should be easy enough to confirm my statements. You should have all the information if you intend 3Earrings to stand a trial. Unless you are the judge and jury here."
Captain Viskiir does not seem convinced, but he pulls out a stone stamp and ink pad "Give me you hand. This stamp will tell me if what you say is true"
The stamp of the Clovis Concord ripples in different colors on the palm of your hand, before settling on black.
Captain Viskiir nods in statisfaction "Yes what you say is true. Then you best keep your word. Any whisper of piracy and everyone here will be killed on the spot" He sternly gazes at everyone and he has the look of fiery conviction.
He and his crew return to the Moonbeam and trail the Wavechaser for a while making sure its headed towards Palm Flora.
When there is a moment Dex will walk to 3Earrings. "I believe we will need a moment to converse. Perhaps a moment alone?"
Being that we are on the open ocean there should be a moment. Once able to get a few minutes alone he stands to address her. "Currently our goals are aligned and this is your vessel and as Captain I will respect your command. I don't trust the Clovis Concord any more than I trust any other group of mortals but when this is done this will need to be handled. I am willing to, well bend the rules of man but I will not stand for evil deeds. I have no desire to have you or your crew as enemies and I believe there is plenty of opportunity for an alliance."
Sorry for the delay I left my computer at work and can't stand trying to do these on a phone.

"Today's pirate is tomorrow's freedom fighter. I don't have the time or the will for political games but I do believe in the right and wrong of The Changebringer."
You spot movement out of the corner of your eye. Something is climbing aboard the ship from the port side—a small party of sahuagin! Close behind them are two hulking, shark-headed humanoids.
Dex starts to run to the port side of the ship and yells "CONTACT PORT SIDE!"
Without waiting for a response he runs to the rail of the ship Dex pulls his crossbow as he does and leans over the rail and takes aim at the closest sahuagin to the top of the ship and fires.

The crossbow shot finds its mark injuring the sahuagin. The Sahuagins and Shark Abominations swarm across the deck. Captain 3 Earrings bellows "To arms!!"I fierce fight erupts on the deck of the Wavechaser
Ridani quickly casts heroism onto Dex. Granting him 4 bonus temporary health each round.
A Shark Abomination lunges and tries to chomp on Dex with its rows of serrated teeth

Dex fires the bolt and sees it strike home on the creature climbing the side. As he starts to reload the creaturs make the rail and the shark abomination strikes him between the scale armor near his neck. A stream of blood sprays out and Dex falls back, seriously wounded but not down. He instintively grabs the wound and starts an incantation. "Findal ol rrin" He casts cure wounds on himself to staunch the bleeding. Falling back slowly he tries to keep his shield up to defend another attack.

Can the channel divinity preserve life be used on himself or only others?
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
(Yes you can use channel divinity on yourself. Up to half your hp maximum. So at this time you cannot since the cure wounds spell healed you beyond half health)
Ridani casts faerie fire on the shark abomination. Its now wreathed in a mint green outline. All attacks grant advantage
Round 2
Dex gains 4 temporary hp as part of the Heroism spell
Feeling the divine and natural magic flowing the healing taking effect Dex grabs his mace and attacks the shark abomination. Smashing with his shield and sending a long arcing swing he attempts to take the creature now under the faerie fire spell.

(They are akin to the coast guard)
"I have been hunting this ship and now its time to put everyone here to the sword for the act of piracy"
Both crews brandish their weapons ready for a fight.
(You can intervene or a fight will commence)

Captain Voskiir "How do I know she won't run as soon as she is away from us?"
You can roll persuasion/Intimidation/or Deception check DC 13 to try to convince him
(Currently your far out in the ocean. There are no villagers on the ship, since they all left on Bisaft Isle)
"You don't. But she has pledged herself to this mission in a way by asking my service. I intend to hold her to that."

Captain Viskiir does not seem convinced, but he pulls out a stone stamp and ink pad "Give me you hand. This stamp will tell me if what you say is true"
Looking at the pad and ink, Dex hesitates for a moment. Assuming nothing else seems out of place he walks to the Captain and holds out he left hand.
"I don't know the history or what you have pending from prior with 3Earrings but my quest is true."
The stamp of the Clovis Concord ripples in different colors on the palm of your hand, before settling on black.
Captain Viskiir nods in statisfaction "Yes what you say is true. Then you best keep your word. Any whisper of piracy and everyone here will be killed on the spot" He sternly gazes at everyone and he has the look of fiery conviction.

Dex stands a moment to gage her response.
In the her cabin Captain 3 Earrings says "Agreed, but I won't deny what I am as a Revelry Pirate. Lets continue on towards Palma Flora."
On the 3rd Day, Heidi Axebeard shouts out from the helm. “Sharkfeather Abyss! We’ve arrived!”
Sorry for the delay I left my computer at work and can't stand trying to do these on a phone.
