Regency set in England. The h is intelligent and well read but pretends to be a bimbo to put off the H who is a prospective suitor. He ofcourse gets very confused because sometimes she seems clever but most of the time she appears to be quite dim!? Ha! it is pretty funny:)

Also, he gives her a tour of his ship where they kiss in the cabin for the first time I think. I wish I could tell you more...Thank you to all who reply!!

That sounds like Never Seduce a Scoundrel by Sabrina Jeffries

Here's the synopsis:
Lady Amelia Plume has many admirers; too bad they’re all fortune hunters and fops who can’t provide the exotic adventures she seeks. The ballrooms of Mayfair have become more appealing, though, since the arrival of Major Lucas Winter—an American major with a dangerous past and a brooding air.

Lucas came to London to find the cad who embezzled money from a naval contractor. The captivating Lady Amelia could be the key to his quest, but what started as a simple flirtation has suddenly become a delicious dance of seduction. So when a rival jeopardizes Amelia’s reputation, Lucas must choose between a chance to avenge his past or a future of fiery passion.
