Sloops are the most versatile small ships available. They offer a cross between Merchant Ships, scout ships and warships. The Jamaica is a good ship for your first upgrade.
History
Strategy and Use
The Jamaica is notable for its speed. Though it has a small hold, speed alone makes it a useful freight ships because that expensive cargo is well protected - the Jamaica can outrun most trouble. The fore-and-aft rigging makes her particularly good at angles closer to the wind. If you end up having to fight, then weak guns and armour will put her at a disadvantage. The only saving grace then is manouverability, allowing the captain of a sloop to turn quickly to keep his guns and armour facing the enemy.
