--2024 EVENT SCENARIO--
It is early 1718. For the last two years the ramshackle and ruined port of Nassau Town on New Providence island has been home, not only to the crew of the Scavenger, but to the hundreds of other pirates that make up the Flying Gang. Nassau had been barely populated since the raids during the war more than a decade prior, that is until the treaty was signed. At first the flow of new arrivals was slow. Out of work sailors here, the occasional escaped indentured servants there, but after the hurricane in 1715, the influx of Spanish gold, and with it the appeal of easy riches the trickle had grown to a deluge. When the Spanish returned and chased the Flying Gang off their wrecks, the pirates quickly adapted, taking to raiding the lightly armed merchant vessels travelling North out of the Caribbean. Local officials had fled, abandoning the port and taking the rule of law with them. Though they had made appeals to the crown and the Admiralty, for the most part their pleas fell on unsympathetic ears. A sandy spit of land unfit for agriculture and dangerously close to Spanish Florida didn't much concern those in Whitehall, and for nearly two years the pirate republic of Nassau continued to grow.
WHEN AND WHERE
Thursday February 8th - Sunday February 11th 2024. We strongly suggest arriving in Central Florida to meet up with our crew by Wednesday morning February 7th, 2024, and would plan to leave Monday February 12th 2024. The day before the start of the event many of us descend on central florida to condense gear into fewer vehicles and to pack the truck and the boat before all driving to a hotel closer to the event. We are scouting a new promising location in the coming months and further details will be added once they are confirmed.
