Well definitely not the Fisherman. I dont remember there being any sailing at all.

Check out Arabia Felix

The Terror by Dan Simmons, From The Depths and Other So Tales of the Sea, the novels and short stories of W.H. Hodgson (there's a complete anthology, came out a few years ago).

Is this a meme or the real deal? People say it inspired Monkey Island/Pirate of the Caribbean franchise.

No, I didn't. I had no idea there was a live action adaptation until I bought the book, because this was the only edition available.
