Attacking a ship
Before i attack a ship I try to position my ship on the right hand side of the ship i am about to attack, prior to hitting the attack key.
When i get to the battle screen i always find my ship accurately in position on the right side just as i left it when i hit the attack key.
This gives me the following advantages.
I already have my ship side-on to fire my canon (useful if i am using a war galleon, those things turn slow).
I have the wind at my back when i want to move around or if i want to board the other ship.

Just can't keep morale up (some great research by bigchief)
