Battle sail and fire start

[Lurch]

Hello all,
Was wondering if a ship should be a little safer from fire if battle or any lower sail setting is current.
Should a ship under full sail be in more danger of fire?
I don't care for house rules much but was somewhat surprised that the rules do not address this;
or is this too small a matter for the game?
I've never come across any historical writing on this other than that courses needed to be kept from
flame or sources of ignition.

I'm sure there are others more qualified to comment, but my hunch is that there is a small increase in risk of fire when full sails are deployed, but not enough to merit special rules, given the overall level of detail of SGN...

Lower courses brailed up to stop wads discharged hitting the sails and potentially causing a fire, hence battle sails. I could not find any reference to additional damage for full sail or and added task. Perhaps an in house rule might use two tasks instead of 1 to put out a fire whilst under full sail.
