She be the Flyin Dutchman! Yarrr!
We be dead on the morrow!!
According to
folklore, the
Flying Dutchman is a
ghost ship that can never go home, doomed to sail "the
seven seas" forever. The
Flying Dutchman is usually spotted from afar, sometimes glowing with ghostly light. If she is hailed by another ship, her crew will often try to send messages to land, to people long since dead. The sight of this phantom ship is reckoned by seafarers to be a portent of doom.
