- A short video about the Cape Cod's pirate connection.
300 years ago, fate took the lives of Captain Sam Bellamy and the crew of the pirate ship Whydah. Ranger Jenna tells a tale filled with myth and mystery, interlaced with truth. Where does historical fact end, and fantasy and legend take over? The sea keeps many secrets, and though we have discovered much about pirates, and the ocean has finally relinquished its hold on the treasures of the Whydah, we may never know the whole truth.

I could listen to Ranger Jenna tell stories for days. We need more of her.
Fantastic informative and transparent presentation! Awesome Jenna! What ever the circumstances and challsnges you faced. It came alive through you!! Thank you!!!!
Good Job.. for standing out in that miserable slop of cold wet weather and telling that story in such an informative style. She's a real pro
I’m a lifelong fan of Eastham and Wellfleet and stories like that are one of the reasons why.
Thank you Ranger Jenna for the great story and enduring the rugged setting for it. Sometimes the actual history is more vibrant than any fiction.
Jenna is adorable in her descriptive tale of Sam Bellamy.
Thank you Jenna, great job at telling a great story about the history of the pirate ship whydah including the human side of it. I thought it was very romantic and a sad tragedy.
Bless her, she's getting wetter and wetter , thanks for sticking with it Jenna :-)
I saw a great display of many of the artifacts of the ship in Provincetown long before the museum was built in Yarmouth.
Thank you for such an informative video. Very well conducted.
Thank you!
Was the ship built in Gloucester Docks with the bell cast in Chepstow? Was it copper bottomed?
If you ever go to cape cod DO NOT miss the museum in S Yarmouth. It is amazing. Your hair will stand up.

Whydah is another name for Judah (as in Kingdom of...) The 50 'African' ship mates including Julian the Indian (half Black half Miskito Indian and first recorded Carribean Pirate ) where the desendants of the Biblical Hebrew Speaking Isrealites (see maps of the west coast of Africa circa 1747). The greatest treasure (and shame) here is the untold and Epic History of the now extinct Miskito Carribean Indians, the Kingdom of Judah and it's decendants of the Transatlantic Slave Trade and the right-thinking mindset of 'Black' Sam and other 'white' people in this time of 'African' slavery... Come on Barry, become a true hero!
