He can not loot, because he has no boats. This does not mean you are unable to raid.
Raiding has a bonus of providing you with loot, under the right circumstances. It does not simply stop because you can not export gold.
The loot bar goes down when any hostile army is in a province, this to maintain upkeep. Raiders have much higher upkeep.

The mechanics are clear, thanks. It's the A.I. behavior I object to.
I don't agree that loot is a 'bonus' of raiding rather then the point of it.
The A.I. didn't use to do this and I doubt it's w.a.d..
Edit: and the A.I. does have the necessary galleys available, it just doesn't use them.

The AI has always done this. Ever since raiding was implimented. This is not new behaviour.
It is not likely that the AI marched their troops from where ever their home is, all the way to your realm. They were likely transported by boats, which were required for another job. If you leave the raiders alone you will see the boats come back and pick them up.
Without seeing a savegame it is very difficult to know why the AI recalled their boats.

Old gods starting date speed five go!
This screenshot makes for a better example methinks.
The raid started two days prior, no boats in sight, no lightning boat disband either, since afaik the galley levy wouldn't be full.
Edit: savegame attached, finally

I have seen in my game 2.3.2 MMUR (north pagan lombard, conquered all italy peninsula from amalfi patrician house) some of my north pagan vassal raiding deep inside hungary, serbia, croatia or byzantine without any river or boat in sight. Obviously they got 0 gold from looting buildings.
