Two points:

1.  Jon

2.  That assumes you're playing in the Tuffleyverse. 
Within that context, I agree.  But if you're not, you
have a couple of options:
 A.  Play in another fictional background, and try to
design your ships to mimic the descriptions of the
ships in said background.
B.  Play in at least a semi-campaign setting, where
each player has to come up with a flavor background of
their own, write up a strategic naval philosophy for
their home-brewed power, and design a set number of
ships of different classes for that power (sort of a
Fleet Book X), from which they are bound to select for
any future games (allowing them, of course, to produce
a certain limited number of new designs each decade or
whatever in game time).
