The Caravel will win over a War Galley, because of the +10% HP Portuguese bonus and the War Galley isn't from the Portuguese,  Saracen,... (a civilization with Galley line bonus)

One of the Portuguese unique technologies gives all ships +1/+1 armor and it can be research in the Castle Age from the castle. It's cost is comparable with the War Galley upgrade but it's value in the early Castl Age is much higher.
