British Navy Age-of-Sail
I have a British Naval officer commanding a sloop during the Napoleonic wars. Given skill, daring, and luck, what is the largest French-or-Spanish merchant ship he could reasonably take? What would be the most valuable cargo for it to be carrying? (Obviously, his ship is much too small to be going after, like, Spanish treasure galleons carrying silver.)

Now you and he have explained the details to me I know better. Hopefully I helped you a bit though, I always try to help, even though I get it wrong sometimes. 😊
