I used to have the same tendency towards the galleons for the storage space for cargo. But recently I found my battle strategy suffered when on my galleon as opposed to my Frigate.
Typically, I am a lone captain, and the best way to solo stuff in as a lone captain for me seems to be like so.
Find target, line up so the broadsides are pointing straight into an oncoming ship, but make sure the ship is out of broadside range.
Then, basically fire like crazy on the cannons until the ship gets in broadside range, and as soon as it is in broadside range...
Run to the wheel, launch broadsides onto the incoming ship, then run back to the cannons and fire off 2-3 rounds, head back to the broadsides, fire off another round (It should have just finished reloading.)
Now, with galleons this is harder, due to less dmg, and sure you may have to dock a little more, but you can generally do more damage, and i find the frigate cannons easier to switch to...
I'll tell you what would be nice... if pressing 'shift + f1' -> 'shift + f8' allowed you to jump though the cannon positions on the ship.... heh
