HMS Prince

"She looks like a ghost ship! Aye, risen from the dead to sink us!"

―The Jackdaw's crew upon spotting HMS Prince.^[src]

HMS Prince was one of five legendary ships encountered by the pirate Edward Kenway in the Caribbean, during the early 18th century.

A Royal Navy warship, the Prince was engaged by Edward Kenway's Jackdaw south of Saint-Domingue in the midst of a ghostly fog. The fog, along with the Prince's black and tattered sails, gave her the appearance of a ghost ship. In battle, it utilized mortars, and attempted to conceal itself within the fog. Eventually, the HMS Prince was sunk by the Jackdaw.

Trivia: HMS Prince is obviously a node to the many ghostships tales and the belief in them by the sailor of that era. The most famous legend being of the Flying Dutchman whose sighting is said tan omen of doom.
