... but did you place any crew at the gun positions? Nothing was changed for the guns or any crewing positions. Some of the boats and guns are faster loading, and the crew rating does matter also, but it sounds like you do not have any crew members place in the gun positions for it to take that long. Either that, or you have been at Battle Stations too long, and they are exhausted. You can find their "rating" for that by clicking on the individual crew member and reading their stats.
