It is definitely a good tip to be wary of this effect. I think the teleporting only happens if you liberate or raze the city. (And the later gives you at least one turn to avoid the effect.)
I noticed few things, but it needs confirmation:
- capture a city, the ship will remain inside.
- liberate a civ, the ship will remain the adjacent coastal tile
- liberate a CS, the ship will be teleported
I'm currently playing England on Communitas Map (very good for a naval game by the way), and there are few CS and civ to liberate (thanks to Gengis and Shaka), I'll try and see what exactly happens.
If you are going to liberate with a melee ship, and you are at risk for this teleport effect, I think the better advise is to liberate with a green ship and not one with lots of promotions.
I can't, all my ship have a lots of promotions!
