So on our recent sailing vacation to the SVI we got a sneak peek of a 'pirate ship' that is rumored to be in the next Pirates of the Caribbean Movie.

She was tied up to the breakwater at Marina Puerto Del Ray in Fajardo, Puerto Rico.

The unconfirmed word is that she came to St. Thomas on another ship and then was motored or otherwise conveyed to Del Ray, where she lays at the moment. The name on the stern says "Sunset, Long Beach, CA"

All manner of spars and such appeared to be lashed down on her topsides. She looked to be in poor repair, but was a really cool surprise to see in the marina. That bowsprit is way-cool. Skeleton with a challis in one hand and spear in the other. Arghhhhh!

A couple of pics...
