WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) – A floating movie set that was used in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise will be docked in Wilmington and available for tours this weekend.

The tall ship HMS Bounty will arrive at Wilmington’s downtown Riverfront Park, near the corner of North Water and Princess streets, on Thursday, May 17 at 9 a.m., according to the Wilmington Harbor Enhancement Trust. The Wilmington Fire Department’s fireboat Atlantic VI is expected to meet the ship at the Memorial Bridge and escort it to the dock.

The HMS Bounty will be open to the public for tours from Friday through Sunday, starting at 11 a.m. and ending at 6 p.m. daily. The tours will cost $10 for adults, $5 for children over 7, and will be free for children 7 and under. Souvenirs will be available for purchase.

The 180-foot long replica of the famous 18th century ship was built in the early 1960s as a movie set for Mutiny on the Bounty, featuring Marlon Brando. It has also been used for filming in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest.

WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) - Developers of a proposed Hotel Indigo in downtown Wilmington can move forward with their plans. Wilmington City Council members gave them the green light Tuesday night.

Developer Chuck Shoninger and his team ran into a stumbling block over some encroachment issues. Part of the proposed building reached out over public property along Nutt Street.

City Council has to approve any major encroachment concerns. Councilman Kevin O'Grady cast the only opposing vote saying it was free property for the developers.

"This is nothing more than an expansion of the building for economic purposes," O'Grady said.

Shoninger said Tuesday night that he was pleased with council's decision to move forward.

"We're excited and excited to get going on Indigo," said Shoninger.

Shoninger says construction on the new hotel could begin by the end of the year.
