Your story isn't really proof of cheating AI. The only thing you can infer is that the AI had destroyers in the vicinity of your work boat. The developers have said that the AI doesn't cheat in this manner. Why would they lie about this? What could they possibly gain by doing so?
I have a story to the contrary. I'm the first to discover an unexplored continent in the ocean. I take the opportunity to settle it at my leisure. As soon as I traded my world map, many turns later, it touched off an immediate increase in naval traffic to/from the "new" continent.
