The attacks by Pirate Ship trashes your Copper on turns 4, 5, 7, and 10 - that is a benefit to you improving your deck quality (you don't want those Copper). Bad luck is losing an early Silver purchase - you were smart to design your deck to avoid that issue.
Bazaar/Pearl Diver aren't top tier opening buys though you don't have a lot of options here, and I don't mind how Pearl Diver adds an element to help hide your treasure... 3 Pearl Divers might have been overkill. On Turn 10, buying a Silver could have improved your buying power more than a 3rd Pearl Diver.
After that, the game is so close it's hard for me to say as I still don't fully understand how to successfully employ the
Penultimate Province Rule to my advantage.
What strikes me in this kingdom is that Tactician and Black Market are a nice combo (described
here). I personally find it difficult to pull off consistently as you need plus-actions. In short, the combo is that Black Market allows you to play your Treasure, then later, when you play Tactician, you still get to spend that coin. Actions that add coin are also good, and the Bazaar in your kingdom helps with both +actions and adding coin. I also have issues where I play the Black Market, play ALL the treasure in my hand, and then I don't have any cards to discard to Tactician... so don't make the same mistakes I often make and remember to keep a card to discard.
Here are some game logs where I got the combo a couple times, though my play isn't stellar:

I got lucky like this once - I might have lost this game without that lucky turn:
