[2020] [Bug/Glitch]Von Malching clipper left in my port, not attackable or destroyable

It just stands there for a long time now, doing nothing, and blocking the way.

I tried to go to pirate mode and destroy it, but it is not attackable- my ship in pirate mode can't attack it (it normally attack all other ships).
Even if I declare war on von Malching, this ship also cannot be attacked! It just stands where it is, ignored by my warships.

If there is any way to resolve this irritating situation, I'd appreciate the help.

My guess is that the quest was bugged, and left the bugged ship in my harbor.

I was very compulsive not to look at that ship any longer, so what I did do is to push that bugged ship over the map (using my ship)- right into the pirate cove, and left it there. It took me a good couple of hours to do it... Now it doesn't interfere anymore.
Interestingly, although pirates are in a war state with von Maclhing, the bugged ship was not attacked by pirates as well.

Let me know if I can be of any further help to you if Ubi's team is interested in looking into this bug.
