Sid Meier's Pirates!

Bigger isn't necessarily better; smaller ships have smaller crews, which are easier to feed and keep happy. Small vessels are also highly-maneuverable in combat and travel the world map quickly.
When your crew has two or three thousand gold apiece as their cut, they'll stay permanently content and you can play indefinitely.
If you intend to complete the main quest or marry, do those quest chains before your character gets old and becomes a slow fencer.
A Ship of the Line is quite a rare ship. If you see one, or an unmarked large frigate that might be one, attempt to capture one. As good as small ships are, there's nothing quite like firing broadsides from SotL.
