The Redwall series sports an amazing array of ships and vessels.  They range from small ships for the rivers such as Guosim Logboats that shrews use to sail the river and the fast watervole boat Swallow featured in Marlfox, to the larger vessels such as the one Triss stole from Riftgard and to even larger ships such as Finbarr Galedeep's Pearl Queen and the Wuddship, the vessel that brought Martin the Warrior and Co. back to Mossflower to fight Tsarmina.

So, which of the vessels in Redwall is your favorite, regardless of allegiance?
Trying to stop me reading Redwall is like trying to separate Sabretache from his sabre.  Basically, don't try.

Galedeep

The Pearl Queen!

And pudding.

mmmhmmm the pudding of course, not the ship itself.  Seriously The Pearl Queen is such an awesome ship.  Though I have to say I quite liked the Purloined Petunia, the Wuddship and the Swallow.

Purloined Petunia is sad. Also, it sounds very hare-ish, as befits its namer

To clarify, the definition of vessel in this case is very broad.  The tree trunk that the wolverine in Rakkety Tam sailed on is regarded as a vessel.  (it floats on water)

Probably Waveworm, although I also favor Darkqueen and Bloodwake.

The heroes seem to have something against good ships, though, because they end up destroyed or scuttled at the end of just about every adventure; every one of these ships ended up being taken apart or sunk, at least temporarily.

lolzars.  an astute observation.  well the ships in Triss were all commandeered by the heroes and not scuttled.

Gutprow was captain Warpclaw's galley, which came to its end when they attempted to capture shrew dibbuns for their slave crew. Sunflash the Mace flew into a violent rage and killed every vermin onboard, and then scuttled the ship afterwards.
