Nope, this is raw sailing. No skills used.
The frigate beats the galleon hands down, regardless of the passive skills.
Even if you use as you put it, modifier skills, the frigate still beats the galleon.

The sail points that are present in the specs., in my opinion, relate to the amount of sails that a ship has, that can be shot down via cannon fire, not to the speed of the ship, otherwise the Galleon would be the fastest ship out there, not the slowest, as it is right now.

I think it's a common mistake, many people believe that the galleon is faster purely because of it's specs. (the sail points) which I think, have been misunderstood.
