Here's a little privateering trick if you have a light sloop and an enemy war galleon. (Not for NPC ships because they somehow have heatseeking cannon balls.)

If you stay close enough to the ships broasides, the cannon balls will sail harmlessly over you ship, possibly damaging your ship masts but not hull. you can use fury, lightning, and explosives, and you will never miss at such close range.
