Yeah, this could work. Having a couple benefits...

1. Cash to fund NA development further.

2. More variety in ships ( visually and from the name ).

3. No pay2win.

When duel rooms come we could have a competition Acheron vs surprise

Please no fictional Archeron ship, I wish it to just be a Constitution with old design. Fiction ships should not belong here please.

It's not fictional per se, it is basically constitution or very similar with another name. The surpise we have in game is modelled after the surprise in the movies aswell and I like that. Yes, HMS Surprise existed but I highly doubt it looked exactly like the one in the movies / NA. Also in case you did not know, we not only have fictional ships in game but also fictional ports. There is no and never has been Kidd's Island, Mortimer ( port and town maybe but with another name ) or Bensalem to name just a few. Many Nations we have in game did not play a major role in the caribbean aswell ( not only the latest 3 ). 

Just imagine the french captured the USS Constitution, refitted and renamed her and there you have it: Acheron. It may be fictional but much less so and much more realistic than other things we have in game already.

The movie Surprise is based off the Replica of the HMS Rose I believe and that might be who the in game one is model off of.

The hull is based on the real Surprise (L'Unite), with the rig and paint scheme from Master and Commander.

As you read Surprise is not entierly realistic neither is Lhermione. So adding fighrehead and some cosmetic changes and new paint to new Constitution and then you just rename her Acheron. So Constitution stays craftable/PvP note while Acheron is DLC with 72h-96h cooldown

But in one way i understand you next someone will want Black pearl in game
