The Wind Waker

The Ghost Ship holds one of the eight Triforce Charts that point to a location on the bottom of the sea where a shard of the Triforce of Courage rests. In order to board the Ghost Ship, Link is required to retrieve the Special Chart from Diamond Steppe Island, an island in sector A6. The interior of the Ghost Ship is very similar to that of Tetra's Pirate Ship.

Phantom Hourglass

Link, Tetra, and her pirate crew were searching unknown waters hoping to cross paths with the fabled Ghost Ship. There is a rumor that there is a heap of treasure on board, so Tetra, without thinking, hops on board. A bolt of lightning strikes the mast of the Ghost Ship, and the pirates and Link are left stunned to hear Tetra's helpless shriek. Link attempts to go after her, but loses his grip and plunges into the waters below.

The first half of Link's quest in Phantom Hourglass is centered around tracking down the Ghost Ship in order to rescue Tetra. After he gathers the Spirits of Power, Wisdom and Courage, he is able to seek out the Ghost Ship in the thick fog of the western half of the Northwestern Seas. After sneaking past monsters known as Reaplings, Link is taken on by the Cubus Sisters in a match of Dead Man's Volley. Link later discovers that the rumor is only to lure more victims into the trap and he finds Tetra turned to stone in the lower decks of the Ghost Ship--her life drained away.

A monster known as Bellum, who feeds on a magic known as life force, is the mastermind behind the Ghost Ship and Oshus explains his involvment in the story.
