Cap'n Flynn's Ship, also known as The Dread-Yacht, is the hub world in Skylanders: Giants that is actually a cursed ship. It can be customized in the game from Legendary Treasures found in the game. The Dread-Yacht made a reappearance in Skylanders: Swap Force.

Story

Skylanders: Giants

Flynn purchased the Dread-Yacht from a desperate seller, who knew that the ship was cursed. The Molekin of Molekin Mountain, and Bowsers from Cutthroat Carnival, have heard or possibly know of the Dread-Yacht's origins.

Skylanders: Swap Force

WARNING: This section contains spoilers below! (Skip section)

The Dread-Yacht takes major damage during Flynn and Tessa's desperate escape from the Greeble Airships. It was soon towed to Woodburrow where the villagers began to repair the damage the ship sustained. After a series of quests throughout the Cloudbreak Islands, Sharpfin and his crew repaired the Dread-Yacht, giving the ship new improvements including a spy mode, a manual, and a hot tub. 

Spoilers end here.

Trivia

  • It is never explained how the Dread-Yacht is cursed. It is assumed that the ship is bad luck, bringing misfortunes to the crew while they were on their quest to stop Kaos, such as the ship repeatedly breaking apart in some areas, getting struck by lightning, ambushed by an Arkeyan Copter and later a ghost pirate ship. Flynn however, refuses to believe that his ship is cursed.
  • With the right set wings, you can unlock Hatterson's shop. The only set of wings that will do this is the Dragon Set's wings, which are available at Kaos' Kastle.
  • Despite being unadvanced in technology, the Dread-Yacht does have a holoprojector in Flynn's cabin.
  • It is never explained how the Luck-O-Tron got on board, it is possible that it came with the ship, or that Cali (since it is found in her cabin) brought it on board.
  • If you use anyone who can create large objects and throw it down the side,the boulder will collide with an island.
  • Many fire attacks will die out when touching the water puddles on the main deck.
  • When a Skylander goes close to the music box on the Flynn's ship, they will sing his/her name.
  • Eruptor is the only Skylander that does not sing his name.
  • Some Skylanders, like Gill Grunt, will have an unlimited amount of water when you stand on the puddles on the main deck.
  • Curse Magazine recently rated the Dread-Yacht as the #6 most cursed thing in their "Top 100 Curses" issue, just behind the vegetable, broccoli.[1]
  • Ghost Roaster is the only Skylander who is able to die on Cap'n Flynn's Ship due to his ectoplasm mode.
  • In the Wii version of Skylanders: Giants, there is a glitch with Eruptor that is caused by using his Eruption attack while standing in a water puddle, then bringing up the Skylanders Stat Menu just as mist rises up from the puddle. If you keep performing this, the mist will stay there. It can lead to a game crash if performed enough times.
