So based on the fact that there are seaponies and a pirate, I'm guessing Princess Celestia sends the mane six out to sea and that's where they meet the Captain and Princess Skystar. So maybe the Storm King causes a horrible storm that destroys their boat and leaves them stranded at sea, then they get washed up on the shore somwhere and Capper finds them and helps them recover.
