Crave Online has a first look at new pictures of the 130-foot Black Pearl which has been constructed at Steiner Shipyard in Bayou La Batre, Alabama for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest and Pirates of the Caribbean 3.
The ship is expected to sail this weekend to the Caribbean island of Dominica, which lies southeast of Puerto Rico, for filming of the two sequels. The pitch black ship is a huge wooden prop built on top of a modern, 96-foot-long steel utility boat.
The Steiner Shipyard also was host to a second vessel, the 180-foot replica of the HMS Bounty built for MGM's 1962 film Mutiny on the Bounty. That vessel launched from the shipyard in March and is already in the Caribbean for shooting.
