A
Pirates of the Caribbean-themed ship that is 50 feet long with 20-foot tall masts sits on a lawn near Rochester, NY. "I built rum barrels, 9ft kraken tentacles, the sails, tiki torch skulls and more all from scratch," explains Tony DeMatteo.
It's not just another pirate ship, it's an experience and looks like something you'd see at Disney rather than a lawn in Upstate New York. The cannons light up and blow fog every time you hear cannon blasts. There are fire special effects and music DeMatteo created himself. "The music is a custom made soundtrack from all the
Pirates of the Caribbean movies I pieced together. More than 30 lights are programmed to respond to every beat of the music, every cannon blast and ship battle, and even lightning flashes and thunder."
