Seems to me that placing a very small charge under the lifeboat that would simply sink it is the only way to go. Tell the pirates if they kill the captain we will kill all of them, otherwise they can just surrender. Given a sinking lifeboat they will raise their hands and surrender.

Good try Captain. I'm afraid you are going to have to sink the boat yourself though. Too bad your men were sent on. I doubt they would have stood by and watch you get re-captured.
