Nope. Doubling Season states "If an effect would place one or more counters on a permanent you control". You can only do it to a creature you control.

Not a bad creature for its time. Its got okay toughness to block a few things, and it can wither away their entire army!

If it costed one less mana it would be much more playable.

This seems to me to be a clear case of touching a powerful ability while wearing a fullscale hazmat suit.
- It's a legend, even if it's not really flavorful at all (at least give it a proper name!)
- It has a kind of semi islandhome.
- It's utterly worthless in combat and not even that good as a blocker.
- It's not boltproof.
All this to offset what is a good but not ridiculous ability.
Printed today, this would probably have a name, still be a legend, be mythic, be 4/4, have islandwalk and swampwalk, and put -1/-1 counters on all creatures except itself.
Though it's probably fun to play with Freed from the Real.

Why is this a legend?
It needs something like 'When a creature card goes into any graveyard from anywhere, untap Skeleton Ship'.

It's one of the few cards capable of killing Darksteel Colossus.
