Can anyone out there unofficially, off the record (I know that's an old line, tell me when and where this thing is going to be? IF you chose to, my email add. is in my profile. A chinese junk makes sense b/c POTC 3 At World's End, ties into Singapore, so I've read.

Here's a site with info - <a href="http://www.historicalseaport.org/" target="_blank">http://www.historicalseaport.o rg/</a> If you explore the site, you'll find some photos and info about the filming of the Pirates movies. I've been on tallships such as the movie-replica Bounty and the Golden Hinde, which has been used in movies and it's great fun.
