Ship Customization is a game feature which allows players to customize their own ships. Players may do this by visiting any shipwright and choosing the "Upgrade" option, then choosing a ship to upgrade. Ships can have visually customizable hulls, rigging, sails, emblems, and special broadsides (hull ranks 4-6 only). Only Medium and War Class Ships are able to be customized. Light Class Ships and Ships of the Line are unable to be customized.

The following features are customizable/upgradable; however, all of them will cost gold and some of them will cost some Ship Materials as well.

Sail Colors[]

Players may change the color of a ship's sails by choosing from a variety of color options. Cost to change colors range from 1 to 10,000 gold.

The price does NOT depend on ship class.

Game Notes[]

  • On September 1, 2011, Pirates of the Caribbean Online released a "Sneak Peek" video featuring some of the ship customization features.
  • Ever since the inception the game (since BETA) the developers had constantly appraised the players of their intention to release Ship Customization. The much-awaited feature finally appeared on the Test Server on October 7, 2011.
  • Later, on October 7, 2011, just hours before the update was released to test, they released a second Sneak Peek, which showed the Brig in more detail.
  • The Brig and Ship Customization went live on Wednesday, December 14, 2011.
  • New sail colors and emblems were released on July 15, 2017 in The Legend of Pirates Online. These emblems were designed based on winning entries for a contest where players could submit a drawing to win a beta key, and some of the sail colors, such as the stripes, come from the Bounty Hunters.
