Flying Dutchman
Cursed ghost ship
The Flying Dutchman is a legendary ghost ship doomed to sail the seas forever, never making port.
Sightings were considered omens of disaster.
The name extends to any spectral wanderer or cursed traveler who cannot find rest.
In sailing, a Flying Dutchman is also a class of two-person racing dinghy.
