Can a settler on a ship settle right after a discovery, and what happens to the ship?
Several experienced players in the threads agree; there is no official ruling.

Yes. A discovery only ends the ship's movement, so a settler ship pointing at a terrain corner can land its settler and found a settlement at once, with no wait for the next turn. The ship is removed from the board and lost when its settler lands, because it is stuck on a reef.
