Zep hit it on the head, you are a Pirate, they are the enemy, they will sink you given the chance. Your job is to not give them that chance.
I think what you need Angel is a better strategy for sinking the ships you need. Don't try to sink one that has 3 other enemy ships close to it, or sink those enemy ships one at a time so the one ship you need is all alone. You can also shoot the one you need once and then drive your ship to safer waters, as long as you don't go too far the tagged ship will follow you. You can get close to the ship you need, get off the helm and fire a cannon shot into the ship you need, that will bring it away from the others.
I see too many pirate ships just barge right in the middle of several higher level ships and then wonder why they get sunk. There is a "circle of influence" around all ships, if you enter that area you will be fired on, you need to determine how close you can get before you enter that zone. Just takes practice and paying attention to those details, you'll be a master sailor in no time at all!
