Sunset (ship)

The Sunset is a ship which portrayed the Black Pearl in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. In 2010, she was redesigned to portray another pirate ship (which is rumored to be the Queen Anne's Revenge) in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.

History
Four separate Black Pearls were built for Pirates of the Caribbean movie series. The original one, which was basically a set on a barge, was only used in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. In addition, another one was built on the sound-stage set to achieve better control over fog machines. For second and third movie, a more sea-worthy Black Pearl was built around the Sunset.
