• Have you ever seen the real Black pearl!?

The black pearl mentioned in the movie isn't actually a real sailing ship.There was once a real ship named the Black Pearl. It was captained by Sir Henry Morgan but sank in a battle. This fictional ship hasn’t fared much better, having been sunk at least three times. But, like Jack Sparrow, the Black Pearl is notorious for being nearly impossible to destroy.
