I'm having the same problem. I was going to talk to her right after helping everyone, Cassie Dalton and The Mariner included, but it gave a second "(Optional: Help The Mariner)". So when I talked to her I received the question "The Great Hunt".
I then skirted around Captain Avery so the quest wouldn't complete. Upon returning from "The Great Hunt" she completely disappeared.
I've tried using a "prid (Captain Avery's reference ID)" however, it doesn't seem to recongnize her code.
Anyone have any ideas?

You could try placing her to your location [refID].moveto player

Dont help the mariner(dont start the great hunt quest) finish changing tide and then you can talk to the mariner and do her quest (or try console)

I unforntunately didn't create a new save, just quicksaves that were overwritten by more quicksaves, and unless I want to start the entire DLC over again I'm fresh outta luck there.

It isn't accepting her reference ID at all. Saying it is unrecognized.

Hey guys, I know I'm a bit late to the party but after digging through console commands I was able to fix the the quest. Here is what I did.

First I typed sqt which will show you all your active quests. I used this to find the quest ID for The Changing Tide which is "DLC03FarHarborM03".

Then I used GetStage and sqo with the quest ID to determine which stage was the active one. I had completed all other side/optional quests and was stuck on the "1000 Talk to Captain Avery" stage which showed as DISPLAYED. Hopefully you are also stuck at this stage.

At this point I typed sqv which shows all of the variables referenced by the quest. One of those will be Avery. Her id is actually "03005c82". I know the one showed in the wiki is actually wrong. Then i typed "prid 03005c82" followed by "moveto player". Make sure you are standing off to an unobstructed side of Allen so that she can run towards him and setup for the quest to continue.

Once Avery is moved to your location she runs to her spot and triggers the conversation with Allen and the rest of the Far Harbor group. Afterwards, I was able to talk to Avery and finish the quest. Hopefully this works for anybody stuck. If not I can help you figure out what commands to use to get you unstuck.

Notable information
The Changing Tide quest ID = DLC03FarHarborM03
Captain Avery ref ID = 03005c82

Commands
sqt = Shows all active quests, which can be used to retrieve quests id's

GetStage DLC03FarHarborM03 = Gets the current stage for the targeted quest. Use sqo to determine what the stage number means.

sqo DLC03FarHarborM03 = Displays the state of all objects for the targeted quest.

sqv DLC03FarHarborM03 = Shows all referenced variables by the targeted quest. Use this to retrieve proper id's for any NPC's
