I dont disagree with you on the "how do you fix a mast... " thing.
But why should that be realistic when nothing else is?
For that matter, they cant repair a hull either, not properly anyhow.. just patch things up, and likely to take days, not seconds.
What about the guy with his masts down that sinks you instead?
Dead in the water.. no oars in POTCO, noone to wave white flag to.
Ok Disney, give us oars, or have repair fix the mast/sails.

Not gonna hold my breath waiting for those oars!

Regarding the lightning hitting the sails..etc Yes, that makes sense. However it makes pulling in those big ships from afar more difficult when im working me cannons on the high seas.. hehe. I'll manage!
