I'm looking for a cartoon (I doubt it was an anime).
I think it took place in Colonial America, mainly because I remember soldiers wearing 18th century British uniforms, but it also featured pirates.
I distinctly remember one character. He was a tall black coated man with a typical cavalier hat, sporting a mustache and a goatee. He kinda looked like Zorro sans the mask but he was probably a pirate. And in the opening of the show there was always a drunk green parrot with an eye patch staggering all over the table and holding a cup in it's hand.
I also remember a particular scene. There was a blonde woman whom I think was the Governor's daughter. Maybe not, but I do believe she was related to someone very influential. She was on a ship at some point. Someone came to her and told her that someone important to her died (I think it was her father). Now here's where my memory gets a little foggy. There are two possible scenes that I seem to recall but I don't know which one is the right one. First; the guy didn't know the woman was related to the dead guy, so he just bluntly tells her about it. Second; he knew she was related to him, but he didn't care about it. She starts to cry. Sometime later, the ship sunk and she was washed ashore onto a desolate island. She was eventually found by the natives. They put her onto a palm litter (the kind of chair you'd see servants carry rich peoples on in 18th century) and carried her into the village. I think it was because of her hair color, they probably thought she was a goddess.
That's all I remember. Also, please don't tell me it's "Pirates of the Dark Water" or "Liberty's Kids". It's none of those two.
