Default bloody annoying bug?

If i use my deck gun to finish of a ship i cant get my guys to unman the deck gun no matter what key i press. also if i submerge and plan another attack later on on another ship my guys are firing the deck gun whilst submerged and giving away my position to the escorts!!
help!!
the key im supposed to press is F5?

Hi Mooncatt
Face the Officer on deck (Watchman) and Click on him. A menu will pop up; Order hime to Un-Man the deck gun. F5 is really good for manning the gun, but I too have had problems un-manning with hotkeys, I always use the watchman to clear the gun.

If you use the SH5 enhanced UI you can click on your Watch officer, one of the buttons is a crew on deck option (ei: man deck gun, man flaks, watch crew). Just select the watch crew and they will go back to the bridge.....

If your on the deck gun it's self, the crew usually won't un-man the deck gun.

But the question now is, were you on the deck gun?

I've never had a problem with using F5 to man or unman the deckgun. But you have to 'unman' yourself in order to use F5 and get the crew below deck.
