Is that a pirate ship on the horizon?

On the evening of the same day we got "lost" in Dubrovnik we walked back through the old city to the water front for our sunset cruise.  We're all standing around looking at the fairly normal looking boats tied up at the docks when what should appear gliding into the harbor but a big brown sail rigged boat that looked for all the world like a pirate ship.  Even our faithful guide Steve was surprised when it turned out that this boat was the one we would be cruising on.  Usually up to 100 people sail on one of these little ships but on this evening it was just 25 of us who had opted for this extra excursion.  It was a lovely little cruise and we all enjoyed the sunset over the water and the story of the vindictive monks.  Seems the Hapsburgs, when they came into power in the area coveted an island owned by a group of monks so they forced them our, but the monks, being a little miffed at this turn of affairs, walked around the island several times with upside down candles dripping wax and curses, and no owner since has lived to a ripe old age.  Be warned, it's not good to covet your neighbor's island.
