Arabella's pirate ship off Nõva beach
Arabella mereröövlilaev Nõva rannas
For Peeter Simm's children's adventure Arabella, mereröövli tütar (Arabella, the Pirate's Daughter), the crew rented a fishing trawler from a Hiiumaa fisherman and had it rigged in Pärnu with black sails and a pirate flag, turning it into the pirate ship Skorpion. The Skorpion then sailed to the long sandy beach at Nõva in north-west Estonia, where filming went on for thirty days. Other ships were played by the barquentine Vega and a vessel moored at Paljassaare in Tallinn, while the trickiest effects were shot in a pool in Odessa.

Peeter Simmi lastefilmi „Arabella, mereröövli tütar“ jaoks rentisid tegijad Hiiumaa kalurilt kalatraaleri ning lasid sellele Pärnus teha taglase, mustad purjed ja piraadilipu – nii sündis mereröövlilaev Skorpion. Seejärel purjetas Skorpion Loode-Eestisse Nõva pikale liivarannale, kus võtted kestsid kolmkümmend päeva. Teisi laevu mängisid barkantiin Vega ja Tallinnas Paljassaare juures seisnud laev, keerulisemad trikivõtted tehti aga Odessas basseinis.
