I got a surprise. Obviously it depends on what type of sailing you do and what you are after. With a big crew and chasing gold, more cargo with a war galleon. PVP I would say the War frigate.
The surprise, to level = Galleon.
Entire time testing One of the things I constantly sent in was to fix war galleon broadsides. Mainly solo sailing there are certain things you do to try to gain more rep. I worked both cannon and sailing at the same time, sails then broadsides. I pretty much watch most the guild race around to get a war galleon, or war frigate, as I kept passing by them with my galleon. Finally told them, galleon gives more rep/ less shots (time), sinks the same ship faster.
Tested this several times, though perhaps close on rep, will sink faster with a galleon. The reason for this is half the war galleon broadsides now misses your target. It will no doubt hit from the side a lot better, but when looking for rep you don't want to try to sink ships from the sides, you want to do more hits, not so much single shot sinking's.
Result = shoot sails all but front on skellie. Switch to broadsides, I used first open fire and put a lot of the hits in front sail not doing damage but counting up hits. 3 broadsides to sink ship, 4 times, same thing and many times 5 times, to sink with a war galleon and half the broadsides missing. Galleon 99 rep, war galleon 97 rep specific example I remember, while taking more time and broadsides with a war galleon.
As for tricky situations, I have sunk war frigate's eitc, with single open fire shots to the side with a galleon. So go show them how to solo sailing to 25, good luck.
