Maybe we could see the introduction of shuttle mission, where you have to transport people/marines from ports.

As far as I recall (And granted this is purely my vague memory) the barque class of ships were solely used in the mediterranean and baltic during this timeframe due to technical innovations in other rigging types. I may be mistaken tho, but for historical consistency (that is getting more and more slim) I'd suggest keeping to ships that were actually used in the carribean during the timeframe of the game.. Otherwise I want a Bismarck!

The largest windjammer ever built was the five-masted full-rigged ship Preußen, which had a load capacity of 7,800 tons. She was also one of the fastest, regularly logging 16 knots (30 km/h) average speed on transatlantic voyages. Unfortunately speed was her undoing, as she collided with a steamer that underestimated the speed of the Preußen when crossing before her.
