Nice looking round, the history of John Rackham is interesting also, these may be colorful characters, but they're also real people. I wonder if "Jack Sparrow" was based off of John Rackham and his flamboyant reputation?

Calico Jack and Jack Sparrow, I see the connection too. John does seem to be one of the more notorious pirates, I could see them pulling some of his elements. Depp mentioned he borrowed from Kieth Richards, also flamboyant.
