For age of sail crew (and captain's) quarters, the film Master & Commander is probably the most accurate movie. Watch how they strip the captain's cabin as he prepares himself for battle. The books it was based, the Aubrey-Maturin series, are even better.
For Traveller starship analogies, though, I'd be more inclined to look at submarines.

In the course of googling HMS Belfast, I came across mention of USS Winston C Churchill. An active duty destroyer, the Churchill is the only current-service U.S. vessel named for a foreign dignitary and also the only one to be allowed to fly the White Ensign.
