I was aboard the Lady Washington today. As many of you know, she was in the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie under the assumed name of Interceptor.
I walked the deck where CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow and young Will Turner had their first ‘heart to heart’ talk concerning Will’s father. I touched the mast rigging that Will was swinging from as the conversation ensued. Alas, there was no ship’s wheel, merely a rudder. The wheel had been added for the movie.
Below deck was a movie souvenir from the crew. Not the movie crew, as I had first been told. It is a piece of the Interceptor signed by the ship crew who worked the ship; no autographs by the CAPTAIN or Will.
Beautiful day on the Great River. (mixing movie lines…) I snapped some pics. Enjoy!
What a GORGEOUS day!! Wonderful photos, Wiz, thanks. Really makes me want to see it.
She’s a beautiful ship! I’d love to walk her deck as well! Looks like you had an awesome day to check her out.
So beautiful! I love those old ships…
