They would still sound British almost 400 years ago.
And The Royal British Navy was ALWAYS hesitant about sending too many ships to the area, because they were quite expensive to build.

they should have been english rather than british, and certainly not flying union jacks. well, the jamaican accent had to come from somewhere, so why did no one (even any extras) sound proto-jamaican? and it'd be nice to have more than two ships, especially when port royale was such a key colony. and how come, despite having two warships and a fort, they couldn't manage to sink the black pearl at the start, which was a normal ship (only the crew were cursed - they made a hole in it with forks later)?

Remember, Jamaican is a mix between African and English.
Why would they not be flying Union Jacks? When was the Union Jack instituted? ALAS, I HAVE seen a problem in this movie.. MOST of the Carribean was Spanish owned, not English at all at the time of the Pirates (BlackBeard.. aka Captain Morgan).

they'd still have had accents, surely.
and the act of union between england and scotland wasn't passed until 1709, and it was a while longer for the union jack to be agreed on, much less sent to the far corners of the navy. now, the golden age of piracy in the carribean was the 1620s to the 1680s, with the last pirates being picked off not long after. the film suggests that it's set towards the end of that period, but i wouldn't think that late to have the british.
port royale had been an english colony since about 1640, and i think it had been a spanish colony (with a different name). hhhmmm, i don't think morgan and blackbeard were the same person - henry morgan led the sack of panama, the wealthiest city in the new world, and it's burning led to the spanish decline in the carribean and got him made governer of jamaica.

Port Royale and the rest of Jamaica was under English rule since 1655.

bob's right, it was just the king's flag (and so used by the royal navy), later adopted by the country.

it would have been developed sooner, because of the union of the crowns (i'm a fool). but they'd have been english, not british, because it was still a little early for that, although they might have flown the union jack, yes.
