Black pearl ship model History
The Black Pearl, immortalized in Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, is a fictional vessel shrouded in legend.
Designed as a Dutch East Indiaman-inspired ghost ship, its lore draws from real pirate history and Hollywood fantasy : Originally named Wicked Wench, the ship was burned and resurrected as the cursed Black Pearl—the fastest ship in the Caribbean, crewed by undead pirates under moonlight.
