Respectfully, I'd suggest neither "onboard" nor "on board" are correct. The correct term (in Nautical terms) is "aboard." As in the following definitions:
- In or on a boat.
2.. An object that is “close aboard” is “very nearby.”
- To go aboard a boat is to go on or in her.
- A ship is said to "fall aboard" when she runs foul of another.
- To get aboard the main track is to bring the clew of the mainsail down to the chess-tree.
