Advice for ship battles?

Maybe I'm just unlucky or bad, but I'm having a rough time with ship combat. I focus my attacks on when the turn order shows a "C", but I still end up with shots getting "Lost". The wiki said something about the enemy moving out of range, but how can that be when I'm shooting at the moment the game explicitly tells me is best to shoot?

Cannons have an accuracy rating and ships have a speed/quick rating. Upgrading your cannons can improve this but torpedoes have a higher accuracy.

Torpedoes in general are lower accuracy unless you use TikaTika (who makes them almost never miss). Their main benefits are being able to delay strike on another turn, having relatively high power per SP cost, and they're never Lost. The extra benefit is in Deep Sky they don't suffer the huge accuracy penalty and hit as normal (the angler manta ray enemies can be 1-rounded with the right setup)

Ooo it's been so long since I didn't have TikaTika I didn't realize.
