Naval war in the American theatre of the Seven Years' War

Was the naval side of the Seven Years' War in America mainly commerce raiding or major battles?

It was a mixture, with commerce raiding prominent and the Caribbean the most important arena for fleet actions.

A mixture of commerce raiding and fleet action, with attacks on trade forming much of the routine naval war. It also distinguishes the political idea of a North American theatre from the waters where fleets were most likely to meet. The Caribbean supplied the principal setting for major naval battles connected to the struggle for colonies and sea routes. Canadian waters also saw maritime operations, although they were not presented as the theatre's only focus. The watch point helps place the French and Indian War inside the wider oceanic Seven Years' War.
