The German Navy had to resort to "Guerre de Course" warfare; commerce raiding, submarines sinking merchant vessels.
If the German Navy had strong battle fleets, then they would've fought a "Guerre de Escadre" type of naval war; FLEET ENGAGEMENTS.
Therefore, no, the Royal Navy was more powerful.
Only the US, UK, and Japanese Navies were capable of traditional surface warfare.
Addition:
Up until WWII it had been the policy of successive British governments to make the Royal Navy larger than than the next TWO largest navies in the world added together. Because so much of Britain's trade depended on control of the sea the Royal Navy was intended to be capable of fighting two major opponents at the same time.
