Author: Jenny [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 09:20:29 08/02/07 Thu Isn't that the ship that Long John and his crew stole from Mendoza (The Cordoba) in the movie? The ship was renamed the Faithful by Purity, right? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

I'm pretty sure that it was in the episode "Pieces of Eight" where Silver mentions that Purity had named the ship. I think he makes another reference to it in "The Eviction", but I'd have to go back and check.
I don't know for sure if in the series it's supposed to be the same ship from the film because they never really say. I was just wondering it anyone else knew.

Author: Susan [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 23:39:23 08/02/07 Thu It's definitely called The Faithful in the series; I can't remember if it had a name in the movie. Guess I'll have to watch it again. :-) [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
