Yo-ho-ho it's a pirate for me!

National Cruise Week logo5.jpgCaptain Jack Sparrow, hero of the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, has topped a YouGov poll to determine the top squeeze on the high seas.

Some 10% of the 2,034 questioned picked Captain Jack, played by Johnny Depp, as their favourite cruise partner, way ahead of Tom Cruise on just 1%. For the men, it was Penelope Cruz, who gained 6% of the vote.

Katrina Leskanich of Katrina and the Waves fame, and comedian Joan Rivers (you'll notice someone has been working overtime here to come up with celebs with watery names) who each gained one per cent of the vote. Crooner Billy Ocean didn't even manage that!

In fact, more than half of those polled (56%) said their favourite cruise partner would be, well their real partner. Women were most loyal with 61% choosing their partners, while 52% of men named their spouse.
