Pirates of the modern day, however, are completely different from their historical predecessors, and ride in speedboats.

While the typical flags of pirate ships for sale are the skull and crossbones of the jolly roger, many fly differing flags. With their starched three sails, the ships usually chosen by these salty pirates were some form of schooner. Pirate ships of the schooner type are fast, agile, and usually crafted from hard, treated types of wood. Schooners were utilized for supply carrying as well as battles by both the navy and scoundrels. Until the conception of the steam engine, schooners were, without a doubt, occupying the seas in great number. With their immense speed, steam engine powered boats soon overtook the schooner as the favorite vessel of pirates.

Pirates were given little choice but to have their ships repaired in port towns with less of a military presence, and could rarely pay the cost of repair. This made the state of pirate ships usually in some sort of disrepair, and long term damage to the hull or other parts was unmistakable and often the only indicator a ship belonged to pirates if the flag was down. While most pirate vessels for sale, especially models, do not keep or recreate these injuries, the buyer should keep in mind that authentic ones were prone to have dents and other blemishes.
