TheWoWDBTried doing this quest today and everytime I land on the boat (whether I take the bat handler or just fly there) the NPCs disappear and I can't turn in the quest. It's like I'm phased or something. i've tried abandoning the quest several times, logging out and even trying on other servers and still no luck.

What to do
StorylineHowling Fjord, step 41 of 162
Rewards1,050 XP
Description
We have the Windrunner, the Queen's Reprisal and the Oblivion stationed just east of the Derelict Strand. Send orders to the fleet's commander, Captain Harker, that they're to destroy the Alliance's cannons. Speak to our bat handler, Camille, and ask for passage to the fleet's location. Be quick, {name}, every minute we spend fighting the Alliance is a minute we could've spent fighting Arthas.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Reports from the Field
Our mission in Northrend is to destroy Arthas. The Alliance are but an obstacle that we'll crush wherever we find them. We've managed to destroy their easternmost fleet; but the survivors have barricaded themselves on the Derelict Strand, south of here.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Ambushed!
This should have been a walk in the park. Their forces are hungry, injured and ill equipped. Yet somehow, we walked right into their trap. We approached these reefs from the south to gain cover and were immediately boarded by the Alliance dogs.
