The captain is killed. He loses all gold on board but retains gold in his Stash. IIRC, he loses everything except maybe the rumor? (i.e. all cargo, all special weapons, the ship as well). He retains Glory Points though.
The ship is effectively scuttled, i.e. sunk. The player now draws a new captain and a new ship, the same choices as in the beginning of the game (i.e. can choose sloop or frigate, starts at new captain's port, etc).

Not enterely accurate.
Rumors are also lost - they are cards too (and there is a Glory card that lets you keep them).
You choose between a sloop and a flûte, not a fregate.
Remember that you get a new Glory card when you start a new captain, just like when you started the game (on p.15 we are told to follow the Player Board setup on p.5). I missed this for quite some time. Of course if you draw Dominique de Richery as your new captian, you would get two new Glory cards.
