Does Jonah’s ability apply to a hit that sinks a ship?  Or does the ship sink without needing to roll one last time for the ability?

When this ship is hit, roll a d6. On a result of 5 or 6, move the crew on this ship with the highest point cost to a wild island chosen by the player to your left.

Is Ghostly Encounter still worth gold if the ship has the ability of “This ship’s crew cannot be eliminated”? (I assume you just wouldn’t bother rolling, but wanted to make sure the UT still functions)

Once after revealing, roll a d6 for each crew on the ship. On a result of 1, that crew is eliminated. Ghostly Encounter is worth gold equal to the crew remaining on the ship after all dice are rolled.

Can you bring in a 0 point crew with the +5 selection of a 0LR+5 crew? If so, can you go through part of the Setup phase (I think only when going second and an opponent chooses their +5 selections before you do) with an illegal situation on a ship that is then resolved by a crew like Jonah coming in via the +5?  Or must the point cap restriction element be fully resolved by the initial X points of your fleet? (very niche use case, and only good for a very brief deke of which crew are on a ship while your opponent might be considering your fleet while making their own +5 selections, with them going first)
