Alright... I think I have it now!
Let me get this right - the orders should go like this:
Naval commander issues
794 AnchShp or
850 MovArmy
basically this anchors the ships at there location (harbor/MT).
Capital commander issues
280 AbanShp - don't forget location and number of ships!
And my problems are solved. The only problem is two more turns
before I see the results! My economy may not make it.

Can the navy land ie Shore plains hex, harbor, or port?
read 275 (applies to 280 also)
Ships cannot be assigned to an existing army/navy.
Ships must be anchored.
If your navy is offshore then the ships are assigned to a navy and
they are
not anchored..
