As for other UI ideas, how about something akin to startrek bridge commander? They have a system where you have your senior officers around you and you command them to carry out whatever task. In this instance they would be sail trim, helm direction, gunnery orders, boats/borders away etc.
You are the captain on the quarter deck. Yes you may occasionally take the helm and possibly fire a single aimed shot but generally you are not the one helming nor aiming or firing cannons. In the middle of a battle a captain would be wasted if they were on the helm or behind a cannon.
Have I explained it sufficiently? Anyone agree that this could be a good system?
