20,000 leagues under the sea, Seaquest, Treasure Island, Horatio Hornblower, Jason and the Argonauts, Mutiny on the Bounty, HMS Defiant, Captain Blood, Deep Rising, Ghost Ship, Jaws...there are all sorts of nautical works out there.
We do have Sinbad, Torpedo Alley, Waterworld, Popeye, White Water, Fathom, Surf 'n Safari, Atlantis, and a few others that I know I'm forgetting.

Captain Nemo is the closest to 20,000 leagues under the sea, too bad not a big quantity being made.
Quoted from Det_Deckard:Aquaman
Any version of Aquaman blows.

That's definitely the closest as far as a game being 100% themed around it, but Verne's World is largely based on it as well. It even has a Nautilus toy and a giant squid toy. Sadly, there's just a very small quantity of these as well.

Moby Dick, Hmmm.
The licencing fee could be fairly low. Ahab chasing a big Whale. Plenty of metaphors and characters to follow.
The soundtrack, well, that will need some work. Whistling, chain rattling, cannon fire, storm sounds, fife, Whale breaths, sea gulls, and maybe a squeeze box or two.

Pirates Of The Caribbean
Quoted from o-din:Pinball is long over due for a maritime theme of substance. There have been a few. Some good ones. Herman Melville's classic novel lends itself perfectly to pinball.
15 years ago I really thought that Hollywood would do an updated version of Moby Dick, but it hasn't happened yet. I still think it would make more sense than another superhero rehash. It's an epically dark story and if done right (haha) would be amazing to see with a big budget. Of course, would be a good pinball too.
