I'll agree with the other posters who are saying put the quest on hold. My first pirate finished the quest in his high 20's with some help in spots. But that being said, I was higher level when I got to Gunner (I got the PDF teleport just after finishing Gunner which seemed ironic considering how much easier it would have been).
With all of the weapons feeding it, your notoriety should be about double your weapons (and try to level them around the same rate). It looks like you're racing through the quest. After you recover the Pearl and give it back there's nothing to do but level weapons and notoriety.
Get your level up a bit (say up to level 23 to get the Padres teleport) before starting back on the quest. The higher you go, the easier it will be. For my 2nd pirate, I'm not planning on starting the pearl quest until after level 23 and have the 4 teleports. He's currently level 13 and still has to recruit Pidgley! There's enough to do with side quests to keep things interesting while you're working weapons.
If you're more of a solo pirate, work on the weapons and sailing. But to level the doll your choices are kiting (attuning something and then running around in circles trying not to get hit) or attuning an ally while they kill things- but you can't do that yet. Cannons are hard to do solo because you have to sail to a spot, get off the wheel and then take a cannon and blast away. But I am finding more ships are circling rather than sitting there nicely while you sink them. Better to tap your guildmates for cannon work.
You should really get the pistol up to hex eater shot at least. That will let you work the other weapons on the vodoo using enemies.
One other thing- your hit and vodoo points are going to be much lower than most other pirates at your level. Getting the weapons more in line with your notoriety level will help you from waking up in jail so much too.
And work the grenades as soon as you get them.
