It seems Jack has been with his 'Pearl' along time. This is an excerpt from Wikipedia:
'...one can find that Jack Sparrow was at one point employed by the East India Trading Company. He helmed the Wicked Wench, an EITC merchant vessel, performing odd jobs for Lord Cutler Beckett. However, after refusing to transport slaves, Beckett sanctioned the torching (and sinking) of the Wicked Wench, and branded Jack Sparrow a pirate. Jack came to embrace his outlaw status and became a very successful pirate, with no desire to return to life under the command of others. Later, Jack petitioned Davy Jones to retrieve his ship that he rechristened as The Black Pearl. '
I was shocked when I found out he worked for Beckett.What do you guys think about this information?
ESB- 1138 leaves random posts but never back it up. he did it to me too.
yeah, i had read that before too. suposedly the boat was sinking and Jack was on the verge of dieing when Davy found him. They made a deal for Jack to be captain of the pearl for i think 13 years. Thats why in the 2nd on Davy is talking about the deal they made and thats the reason the beastie is after him because his time is up. He's supposed to work for Davy now.
So yeah. I've heard that though. I found it mighty interesting myself.

No wonder Jack hates Beckett so much. Jack refused to do something,so Beckett sunk his ship an branded him a pirate for it.He was never REALLY a pirate.
