Sorry for taking a while to respond to this. I have been travelling for the last week and writing from my tablet was really not working out too well...
Very interesting. I wonder if something could be pulled from either DGUTS or Trireme and used in a Blackmoor environment!

DGUTS is really specific to the Napoleonic wars. It could be used for the AWI, SYW and other conflicts in the century before. It would be hard to transition it into the age of steam ships. You could maybe use the sailing and galley movement rules in earlier times.
We actually used a set of rules called Trireme for ancient to renaissance era naval battles.
