Whenever I've soloed the BB, (22 times) I've stopped after the officers to get coffee, etc. After the frigates and the first three bridges were defeated, I'd normally be at around 92% hull remaining. So no, rushing gains you nothing (but an irate crew.) Checking the timestamps at http://photobucket.com/POTCO again, it looks like I waited three minutes before heading out that time...

I wait once the officers are finished off but I expect everyone to know where their cannon is once going up against the forts.
From what I've seen, if you wait three minutes after the frigates have been finished off then the forts will do quiet a lot of damage to you.
