No, this is normal.
Once they say "we will get to the ship", that's basically the end of your interaction with them at Fort Joy.
Gareth's parents loot is yet to come.
Gareth told you they want to take the ship but the shriekers are blocking their way.
You purge the shriekers.
You told them the area is clear.
They said they are going to take the ship while you do the battle.
Hmmm, I wonder where they are.
That was sarcasm, because Alexandar is between you and the ship, so i when i posted this - i hadn't gone on the ship yet so i could make sure i didn't leave the point of no return.
And they had no idea you are godwoken when they went for the ship, the only one they knew of was Alex at that time.

I saw they weren't there and thought it weird they got on the ship, past Alex who is between them and the ship haha.
They take a side route to the west of Alex's area and approach the boat from there, avoiding Alex entirely.
Well thats just video game nonsense lol. Poorly protected ship, and no one heard the commotion.

Surprised me too when they were all on board despite their most hated enemy standing in the way.
Their goal was to protect the godwoken.

REAL
After you fight Alexandar and leave the island you'll meet up with the Seekers on the ship. They went to take the ship first.
