It's very hard - you have to visit her a lot and have a high reputation (eg. notorious/infamous). Also I think it's a waste of time if she immediately doesn't take a liking to you (eg. when you can reply a drink and some company the first time you meet her). The Wit and Charm skill is a big help here, but since it's just about the only thing it's good for I don't take it. Also don't forget that captured pirates can tell you the location of silver train/treasure fleet.
And skill at Medicine does allow you to play longer, but Navigation makes you sail faster and thus shortens your voyages. Personally, I still prefer Swordfighting because it allows me to take on insane odds and win (my greatest success was capturing a Pirate Hunter's War Galleon - about 200 men - with only about 30 crew on my side! It was on journeyman level, though.)
Also I agree on not saving when going to land, once I even ruined my save game that way, because the game insisted I had no ships!
