Sea scales?

I'm looking for some scales that would be used in nautical music (pirate songs, sea shanties, etc). I've been having a concept album idea

Cool ideal The US Navy has lots of music and sea songs that you should be able to find easy. Some of them are pretty good too.

transient has a fine taste for old drinking tunes and melodies, he may know something about shanties.

I'm thinking just the modes of the natural minor scale. Particularly the majors.

Me and a couple of mates wanted to make "pirate metal".

But we figured out it would just be a Finntroll ripoff without the trolls and pirates instead.

But we need more bands with a growled "yaaarghhh!!"

Someone should start Circus Metal band. That would be pretty badass.

What, like hanging by your feet on the drummers high-hat when doing a solo? Or forming human pyramids, with a touch of snake-pit style cable mess?
