I was sitting in Panera working on my laptop when someone I hadn't seen in decades came up to my table. We got to chatting and he said, "I saw an article in the paper a year or so ago that said you're still doing something good in the community." At first I wasn't sure what he meant, then I remembered the profile article the local paper wrote about my work re-enacting the role of a pirate surgeon. Doing something good in the community! Yep, that's me all over.

Ahoy and greetings to all, I be a little known pillager known as James Smythe. Growing up on the gulf gave me an early intrigue to pyracy in its forms and the habits grew healthy. Currently I have been land-locked but I due make my pilgrimages back when I can. I came in hopes of finding a community to aid in my needs for pillage and plunder.

Hello All, Munk Here some of your probably know me. I have been reenacting since I was only three my father started me in civil war reenacting which I still do to this day. About Five years ago I decided to pursue my life long passion of the golden age and picked up pirate reenacting as a second hobby. I severed for a time with the pirate Brethren and made alot of good friends in that crew. I have recently stareted my own crew the mob town Hooligans. I am new here and decided to join to keep my ear to the ground for new events and to learn more about the era as there is never enough knowledge. Cheers all Munk

Lately, me 'earties, forces have bin put to work determined that yers truly, Ricky, th' Hawk o' the Drive, not have a nice day. Indulge me, ye black-hearted scallywags, whilst I elaborate: There've bin swabs giving me port --- that would be me apartment --- what they calls an "extreme makeover." Actually, these dogs have been in and out o' me house, replasterin', repaintin' and otherwise inspectin' the walls of me domicile. Believe me, mateys --- this Pirate job tends t' be tough, ferocious an' silly. But the only thing that would cause me t' guzzle some rum would be a few Pirate music-makers: concertina, flute, vocals, guitar, fiddle and drinks all around (Diet Coke, mo…

Hi my name is Matthew Krogh and I am looking to get into the hobby. I have a unit in mind but was hoping to get some input for sutlers and any ways to cut corners on cost by doing stuff myself (to a small degree). Any help or advice for this hobby (as opposed to Civil War reenacting which I did for 10 years) is appreciated! Thanks! Regards, MK PS~My civil war confederate nickname was Bambi. I'm guessing that won't work in the pirate world, haha.

Hello everyone. I'm a new member although I've frequently visited this site in the past. I'm a pirate from Riverside, California. My family is relatively new to pirate reenacting, we started last summer and have been hooked ever since. I make hats and do fine art scrimshaw full time. The folks that we've met at Faires have all been amazing so I thought I'd join the forum to meet more pirates. I'm looking forward to meeting you all. Darrel Morris

Hello all! We are three student researchers at Flagler College in St. Augustine, Florida. Historical reenactment and interpretation are a major part of St. Augustine life (the oldest continuously inhabited European-established city in the continental U.S.!), so for an anthropology class we've decided to study both communities, locally and nationally, face-to-face and online. We are looking to discover what they have in common, how they are different, and what motivates individuals to participate in their respective communities. With your permission, we would like to view online forum activity in order to understand how reenactors and interpreters use online communitie…

I've been a pirate in hiding for a while now, only in the last year or so have I been coming out in public more frequently. My name is Jason and I write programs for apple devices. I currently live in Orlando, but the wife and I have plans to move to St. Augustine. We love St. Augustine, it's a city full of history plus the wife already has a job there . If by chance you find your way in St. Augustine I definitely recommend the Pirate and Treasure Museum. It's a little small, but it offers a big experience. Anyway, just thought I'd introduce myself to all you pirates out there.
