Too many cooks! LOL!

Sauron would not expect a ship to be able to capture a dragon; it would fly away or merely roast the vessel. He would instruct his men to seek some sign of the dragon and return and report to him. I suggest that he sends a vessel, with a crew of about 20. It sends a small skiff to sure to look for the dragon. The larger boat approaches the Star. Our landing party assaults the skiff and its small crew and, either guessing or overhearing a conversation, and seeing the larger vessel approach the Star, sets the skiff on fire. Seeing the fire, the larger vessel makes way towards the shore. When it nears the shore, Ancalimon sets off one of his patented dragon rockets and sends it off towards the East and Sauron's ship follows, eventually reposting to the Boss that the dragon was last seen heading East. A bit of misdirection buying us more time. When no sign of the dragon is found in the East, he eventually sends out more boats, giving us later opportunity for conflict.

We can work out the rest of the details at our leisure.
