For the film *Swashbuckler* they used the ship *Golden Hind* (Re named the Blarney Cock for the film)
And the Ship in the 1956 TV Series The Buccaneers was indeed the ship from Treasure Island and Mobey Dick and was called the *Sultan*
Here's a bonus...
In *Donavan’s Reef*, the masted schooner that brought Amelia Dedem to the Islands was Director John Ford’s personal ship, the 106 foot beauty, the Araner.
I was lucky enough (when I was too young and stupid to appreciate it) to have a sail on her before she was sold in 1971.
Between the armor and the bucket boots.. that could have been pretty damn funny...
Especially... if there had been a ship with full cannon waiting off shore for the Knight.
(Sorry, sorry I know that would not be very chivalrous ... (shrug)

It's all about the money...
And like them or hate them, these type of *Pop Culture* Pirate movies are making money for us hand over fist. EVen so long after they came out.
They are the most asked after films we get *when! When!?* letters about.
If it works they will stick to the not so historical process, go with the more Mythical and make tons more money. (shrug)
I work with mentally ill patients who also have...shall we say.....behavioral issues. Someone is always trying to bite, kick, punch, scratch, or headbutt me. Never the same day twice.
Sounds like the Team Disney Building.
Nonsense...
Nothin at all *Unhealthy* about it.
unless yer the victim.
Welcome aboard mate.... haul up a keg, sit ya down and spend some time. Most take a finacy to us right quickly.
And yer buyin....
Mai Tai if'n you please...
It could have been so much worse...
The fact that we are all here blathering about it WITH you and Kate makes it good news after all.
Your Car.... not so good news but it is just a car. I lost a good friend to a drunk driver and I would have so much rather she'd just lost the car.
(Huggage)
Glad yer safe mate. Glad fer all of us.
Hmmmm.... I've never been *scared* by Pirates.
*Curse of Pirate Death* I guess but only becasue it scared me that it was so insultingly bad. it just kind of stunk up the place.....
This TRUELY makes me happy.
I saw it the day after it happened.
It only took her a few notes to set those twits that were smirking at her back to the front again. Never, ever judge a book by its cover.
May her success only increase!
