I'm having this same issue and I've found some reproduce-able actions. This is currently happenign to me EVERY SINGLE TIME I get out of the boat. It will despawn VISUALLY but it's still there. I know this because my dog was in it and it despawned with the dog in the boat but I could still hear the dog and see the boats "shadow" on the block it was floating over. Here's the clencher.. if I ram my boat into the shoreline and then jump out with it overlapping the shoreline block a bit.. it doesn't despawn.
The only way I've been able to get the ship to spawn back into the game is by leaving my server completely and then rejoining.
YOu can see in the screenshot below the dog floating, sitting in the boat that's despawned. I actually just timed it right because he's flickering across my screen, almost impossible to see.
