No ship-wright ever build a ship with the intention of it being used as a pirate ship. (excepting the military of course). Figure-heads use to be a common feature of most ships as an appeasement to the spirits of the sea, sea Gods, ect. A mermaid was for a time a popular fashion but was in no means the only motif for a figure head.
