Is this where the realism is rubbing you raw? I hope not. And I promise I'm smiling as I'm writing this - it's just a game mate.

None of those are realistic, but its a game.
Plus.. to be more specific, it is a Disney game.. Disney is targeted towards younger audiences. Younger players tend not to care about the details.

Obviously neither of you are paying attention to my point, POTCO started the game from the ground up, they couldn't have the the time to spend 20 minutes on a computer looking up the proper name for a ship before designing it?
Seriously, this takes hardly any Developer time, just some renaming, though it would have taken no time if POTCO would have named their ships properly from the beginning.
Who said POTCO should be Historically accurate? Nobody, but POTCO should not try to redefine ships. There is no good reason why POTCO has had to missname ships, and to add, no reason why they should have released with a completely messed up frigate design, it's simple just a long narrowish hull, easy playability, easy to Design, I see no reason why POTCO shouldn't have just junked the Current galleon replaced it with the current frigate model and then add the interprid as the new frigate.
And about the whole "POTCO is not Historically accurate" and "Skeletons don't exist in the real world", ENOUGH!!! I know it isn't and neither is POTBS completely historical either, was fighting Zombies and Ghosts, and some weird Boba Fett/Kelpbrain Boss last week on the burning sea. But, at least they spent the time to properly name the Games' ships instead of guessing.
Also might I add, POTCO is younger audience targeted, but missnaming ships in a somewhat bad influence for easily persuaded Players.
