I' m sorry but I don't seem to understand what you are referring to. Is it a thing at one of the hotels, or on the Disney Cruise Line?

Definitely fun - the "pirates" are very lively and make it a fun voyage with some sweets before and a meet up with some favorite characters before and after.
The Pirate Cruise that takes off from the Contemporary hotel to watch the Wishes fireworks from the lagoon.

We are planning on doing this with our daughter next year. She will just be about to turn 4 years old. Most of the reviews & blogs I've read about it have made it sound pretty awesome! It's still a while away, but I'll definitely post about my experience with it next year!

We did it when my daughter was four. Definitely worth it. You get a ton of snacks and good ones too. They play a game on the way out to the fireworks, and all the kids will win a prize from the pirate treasure chest. It provides a great view of the fireworks with music piped in. The pirate interaction is great. They are so upbeat with the kids. We had meet and greets with Smee, Hook, and Peter Pan. Smee and Hook wave you off at the dock and Peter Pan greets you on your return. Our family loved it.

It's great, but my one concern with children that age is the time. By the time the boat gets back to port, it can be pretty late (depends on when Wishes runs). We did it with a 4 and 6 year old and by the end of the night, the 4 year old was beat and falling asleep. I'd say it would probably be better for somewhat older kids. But at least, make sure your children get a nap that afternoon.
It's definitely fun though and great for kids with the M&Gs and the games/prizes.
