00:00It is viewers like you that make videos like this possible.
00:06Please support Mickey Mouse Park dot com.
00:09Now, this is interesting.
00:29This is going to be Captain Hook's pirate ship, which we all know is the chicken of the sea tuna boat.
00:35And it was built in the mill where Lincoln is now.
00:38And as you can see, moved across the park to its location.
00:43And again, like the flight to the moon, this was one of the attractions that was right at the end.
00:49So we're looking at this. Gosh, it's only a couple of weeks from opening.
00:54And if you do get a chance to look at the footage that's in the kinescope opening day of Disneyland,
01:01you can see that the boat was painted red.
01:03It's black and white, but you can tell they put paint on it and there were no details.
01:07None of the beautiful gold filigree work was on.
01:10It was just a piece of wood that had been painted red.
01:13And that's about as far as they could get on that opening day.
01:20And where, other than the fact that it was damaged and thus destroyed,
01:25where were you planning on putting this in the Fantasyland rehab in the early 80s?
01:28Well, we carved out a space right at the end of the ride where currently you come out into Eric's castle area as you leave the ride.
01:36And it was just north of that towards Small World.
01:39And so someday.
01:40But much of this boat is salvaged and in the current Peter Pan ride,
01:45all the pieces that we could lift off of it and restore into the Peter Pan ride itself painted in blacklight.
01:51And the entire boat was duplicated for Disneyland Paris.
01:56And you can visit it with Skull Rock Cove and everything in Disneyland Paris.
02:01In orientation to today, where is this in Disneyland now?
02:05It is exactly on the footprint of the Dumbo ride.
02:09That's right.
02:09And behind it, you can see what is now Storybook Land and the Casey Jr. Railroad.
02:15At the time, there was nothing but dirt.
02:17And they didn't know what they were going to do with it.
02:19So they called it Canal Boats of the World.
02:21And the rumor is that Bill Evans, who is the great legendary landscape architect for Disneyland,
02:27labeled the weeds so that the ride operators talked about Obelé vulgaris and various things along the way.
02:34Latin names?
02:34Yeah.
02:35As construction of Fantasyland reached a frantic pace prior to opening in 1955,
02:41it became apparent that there was not enough room left in Fantasyland to build the pirate ship.
02:46So space was cleared behind the Main Street Opera House, which was being used as the lumber mill,
02:51and the entire ship was constructed backstage.
02:54Shortly before opening, the fantasy of the flying ship came true,
02:58when the Chicken of the Sea pirate ship actually flew into Fantasyland,
03:02courtesy of a nearby construction crane.
03:04Originally, Captain Hook's pirate ship sat in a simple pond.
03:08In 1960, the pond became an exotic, tropical setting from Peter Pan, with the addition of Skull Rock.
03:14The Chicken of the Sea pirate ship and restaurant was a Disneyland landmark from 1955 until 1982,
03:21although the name changed to Captain Hook's galley when Chicken of the Sea dropped its sponsorship in 1969.
03:26Chicken of the Sea pirate ship and restaurant served tuna sandwiches, salads, hot tuna pie, and beverages.
03:33From wet Disneyland dictionary in 1968, a gay Spanish galleon from Walt Disney's film Peter Pan rides a poop deck for a different view of Fantasyland.
03:43It includes a cafeteria featuring famous Chicken of the Sea tuna dishes.
03:47Seating is in a pirate's cove next to Skull Rock.
03:50Ask any mermaid you happen to see, what's the best tuna, Chicken of the Sea?
03:58Originally, the ship was made entirely of wood, but with the wood sitting in water for so long, it began to rot.
04:03Over the years, the wood was partially replaced by concrete,
04:06so when it was decided to remove the ship for the remodeling of Fantasyland, it was not possible to save it.
04:12The Chicken of the Sea pirate ship and restaurant, it was not possible to save it.
04:42Destruction of the Chicken of the Sea pirate ship and restaurant.
