What class except other gunboats is good at destroying gunboats and what numbers of it are needed for one, provided that both sides are above average by skill?

Destroyers, which will cause massive amounts of rage due to 'excessive force'. And other gunboats. Other than that, bombers, but you'll need 2-3 to reliably cause damage against a good gunboat.

A Cruiser with Solaris, or a BC/Cruiser with cruiser missiles.

I used to have some success shooting gunboats in Solaris/razor cruisers, but I think Solaris energy consumption was tweaked since, perhaps making it less viable against gunboats. Razor burst damage to the gb shields still seems very helpful.

And of course bombers, if you bring enough.

Destroyers? Nah, New Gunboat guns are too op with 1300 projectile speed. It can hit the Destroyer at 700-900m range. It is impossible to dodge. Also lone Gunboat can destroy every class ship now.

Destroyers have to get 300-400m to hit good gunboat pilot.

You need Fighter swarm to destroy skilled gunboats or mayb Destroyer with Solaris/Razor guns

Pics or it didn't happen. I get that complaining about gunboats has been the in thing for quite a long time now, but I refuse to believe a lone gunboat is capable of killing a battleship.

That's old. That cruiser Razor has the same stats as the gunboat one now, except that it's twice as expensive.

Happened a few times to me. Let me dig through my screens, maybe I find something.
A lone gunboat that doesn't rely on missiles or Solarises can kill any battleship, including carriers with 20 light turrets (but them only if the gunboat is really skillful), no matter the battleship's skill. A battleship can defend by mounting 2 BS Razors instead of Cerberuses or whatever it has, but their range is shorter than that of gunboat Razors, Pulses and Cerberuses.

So the solution is to delete gunboats?

I'm in!
