In real life you likely would have put a few shots across the bow, let the crew take to life rafts or a dinghy and maybe even given them some supplies before sinking their schooner or yacht. Maybe you would have gone aboard and scuttled it yourself.

But it's a game and there is no real crew, so you just sink it.
