About shooting the cannon I left click in boat once, and it start to aim (in one direction ??). Clicking twice gets you to the lower deck. It's seems very hard to aim, and the battle simulation is a little weird. As pirate with 4 cannon and 30 crew in a pinace, I was able to win a battle with a spanish caravel and a carrack with (caravel: 100 crew and 20 cannon). Without hitting a shot in their ships. Second time, I was sunk by other pinnace.
As merchant, the missions stop appearing after first ones to reappear only after 2 years of games (?).
Trading looked good. But suddenly after one year I was buying precious stones (375p in promotion). But I realized every market on game had cheap precious stones, so I keeped in warehouse for a year... and the price didn't change ever. Strange... Every game I started the markets had the same configuration. So it should be possible to predict them.
Same thing happen when I bought rifles...
How can I load the ship from my warehouse ? This I don't know...
