Why are some ships unresponsive?

The selected ship in the screenshot will not move, it has minimal crew after boarding. 

The rudder is damaged but that doesn't mean the sails can't be hoisted right?

So what is this? Why will they not take orders?

 

Update: they would not move ever, Ill add this to boarding being broken

If you check your screenshot more carefully, you will see that the whole crew does a survival task. There is a broken structure and water arrives. Nobody can manage sails. This is why the ship can not move. You need to transfer additional crew.

Is it possible for the minimum crew transfer to account for any survival tasks the crew might need to accomplish as well as control the sail? That way you will always have the minimum needed to sail a ship and keep it afloat but nothing else without sacrificing an officer.

Except for one confused guy who is manning the guns. 

"Okay guys, I'm ready to load the guns when you are...guys?"
