Pirate sim + graphics?

I've been waiting for a pirate games since I played Pirates! on the C64.

Despite all the setbacks, I'm still interested in the genre:

However I wouldnt be too enthusiastic about both of these titles.

Pirate simulator is a private effort - it might be good, but looking at the screenshots it might never be really finished. I commend these guys though, have thought myself about started my own game btw ..

EIC looks very promising but they haven't updated their site in ages. It looks like they are waiting for more funds ..

Well if UBI would just pay somebody to make a Pirate or a Jules Verne game with the Silent Hunter engine .. That would revive the genre as much as SHIII did for the U-Boat sims.
