(pre-2006 revamp)

The Wicked Wench was a pirate ship which sailed in the Caribbean Sea in the early 18th century. Under the command of the notorious Pirate Captain, she attacked the Spanish port of Puerto Dorado on Isla Tesoro.^[1]

History

PirateCaptain Ride — A pirate captain aboard the *Wicked Wench*.

It is unknown how the Pirate Captain acquired the Wench. Some details of her hull and rigging imply that she was a Spanish vessel^[3] before she was captured by pirates and converted into a pirate ship.

At some point during the first half of the 18th century, the Wicked Wench sailed for Isla Tesoro, where her pirate crew attacked the Spanish town of Puerto Dorado. Though the Spanish soldiers managed to break the Wench's fore-mast with their cannon fire, the pirates succesfully invaded the town and captured its magistrate, Carlos.^[1]

Behind the scenes

In 2006, the pirate captain of the Wicked Wench was replaced with Hector Barbossa.
The Wicked Wench flies the same pirate flag that was historically used by Richard Worley and Blackbeard.
The name "Wicked Wench" would be used for the name of Jack Sparrow's ship before it became the Black Pearl. Disney wanted to rename the Wicked Wench on the ride to Black Pearl, but were denied licensing rights.
