The Whitebeard

The nickname of Neu E. Gates. It was given to him through his ship, the White Beard. It was designed to stay for long periods in the swells, hiding from view. It could also fire it's cannons from any swell on those down below. No one outside the New World Pirates ever learned this secret.

Destruction
It was sunk by Alexander Raye, but the wreckage was not searched so Whitebeard survived to fight another day.
