Captains and officers
One of the duties of a captain and a guild officer is to see to the needs of his crew/guild. When I have a crew on board I don't use broadsides unless I'm under attack. I tell the high lvl cannoniers to only take out sails with lightning/fury and then everyone must use round shot on the hull. That maxes out reps for everyone on the ship including the captain. I never use open fire since it increases the ammo strength and has the potential to decrease overall reps. I just park my ship far enough away to stay safe and let the crew do the rest. Last night with a crew of 2 and double reps I ran up 33,490 reps in the 3 hours of 2X reps just sailing.
As far as what side of the ship you should be on, I suggest we break into crews of 5 so we don't have that particular problem. Larger crews are just too cumbersome and one side will always get short changed.
