Search and Rescue ships

What a nuisance these guys are!!!

I have just delved into the world of liberation missions and black box salvage and the SaR ships are pests.
I was liberating some hostages from a pirate, broke into the cargo hold with a limpet and the goods came flowing out. By the time I had collected a couple of said hostages (stored neatly into canisters), the SaR ship had already jumped in and collected everything up, including my hostages.

Is there a way to stop this from happening or is having to jump out and back in until the SaR ship isn't there the only way?
 
you could always shoot and destroy the S&R ship ...

beside that:
1. set all not mission cargo to ignore or single target your mission cargo - chances are high you pick it up before the S&R ship than.
2. do not destroy the pirate/hostage until you have collected all cargo.
 
Some of the stuff that they dropped.
Master Chefs was one.
Military Plans another.

Once I ignored all those items, it became much easier.
I made the mistake of destroying the pirate as well.

Got the hang of it now. Again, something new that I've not attempted before but they are fun.
Probably could do with adding another collector limpet controller to speed it up a bit.
