Description
Black Pearls is not a model, a movie set, or another project meant to remain only on paper.
It is a real ship being built in Poland.
Years of work are already behind us, along with hundreds of hours spent building, rebuilding and preparing the vessel for the journey ahead.
The ship has already been launched, but the most important stage is still ahead of us — completing Black Pearls and preparing her for her first major voyage.
We want to raise PLN 500,000 to complete Black Pearls and prepare her for safe sailing.
The funds will be used, among other things, for further work on:
- the hull and deck,
- electrical and technical systems,
- navigation equipment,
- safety systems,
- interior finishing,
- rigging and deck components,
- equipment required for future voyages,
- preparing the ship for inspections and operation.
We will document every stage of the work on our channels so that everyone supporting the project can see how their contribution is helping transform Black Pearls.
The plan is to complete the ship in Poland and then begin her greatest journey:
Baltic Sea → Atlantic Ocean → Caribbean.
Ultimately, Black Pearls is meant to become a vessel that truly lives and sails — supporting its own maintenance through cruises, events and unique experiences in the Caribbean.
We are not building a ship that will remain tied to the dock once completed.
We are building a ship that is meant to go out into the world.
The project is led by Robert Piasecki — a captain with many years of maritime experience.
He has worked aboard commercial and fishing vessels in the North Pacific, as well as sailing yachts in the Caribbean and the northwestern Atlantic.
Over the years, he has gained experience in navigation, shipyard repairs, commercial diving and operating tourist vessels.
Black Pearls is the result of experience, a dream and an idea that has been turning into reality step by step for years.
A major part of the project already exists.
The ship is here.
The work is underway.
The project has reached a stage where further progress depends mainly on funding materials, equipment and specialist work.
Instead of letting the project come to a halt, we want to invite people who would like to become part of this story.
You do not have to be a sailor.
You do not have to know anything about ships.
If you like the idea of helping create something truly extraordinary and would one day like to see Black Pearls under full sail — you can help us make it happen.
PLN 10, PLN 50, PLN 100 or a larger contribution — every donation brings us closer to the moment when Black Pearls leaves Poland and begins her journey toward the Caribbean.
If you cannot support the project financially, you can still do something just as important:
share the fundraiser.
Thanks to you, it may reach someone who wants to become part of this story.
We want everyone supporting the project to be able to follow the entire journey:
