So often I hear in a very authoritarian voice "there are no ropes on a vessel." True, once brought aboard most rope when put to use becomes a line. Most line with a name for the purpose it serves. There are , however ropes aboard. So here's the game; what are they?

Aloha to you all, I have come back to this island of refuge after one long cruise. The great news is that I am now indepentantly wealthy. The bad news is that I have depentants. LOL. Those of you that remember me come by and I will get you drunk. Those of you that want to know me come by and I will buy you a drink. Till then I will be on the beach in my hammock or at the Pub.

Me mum will be 90 years old March 3 2010. I'm sure she'd appreciate birthday greetings from a gang of brigands, cut-throats, ne'er-do-wells, and general pirates. Oh yes, and me own birthday is April 21.

Mapmakers will often insert a tiny piece of incorrect information in their maps to prevent the illegal reproduction of their work. Called a “copyright trap,” the fake text might be a bogus street name or even the mapmakers’ initials hidden in the corner of a city park "Hey BlackJohn...is this true?" People didn’t always say “hello” when they answered the phone When the first regular phone service was established in 1878, people said “ahoy.” When first published as a serial in Young Folks magazine, Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island was titled The Sea Cook Dog watch is the name given to the 1600-1800 and 1800-2000 watches aboard ship. The 1600-2000 4-hour watch w…

Hello Everyone, or is that Ahoy? Just wanted to introduce myself. Saw my first glimpse of pirate life at the NC Ren Faire in Nov. 09. Please forgive the not so piratey name. With that out of the way, I reside near Burlington, NC and look forward to going to a few pirate fests. I think the next one in my state is Greenville, NC's pirate fest.

Ahoy there! I am writing to beg for some help. "The Long John Silver Trust, is a registered charity in England. The ultimate ambition of the Trust is to bring a statue of LJS to Bristol, England. A city mentioned in Treasure Island, a city that is said to have inspired Robert Louis Stephenson and the city that is said to be the birthplace of Blackbeard (and Woodes Rogers). As well as trying to raise funds, the Trust is also trying to raise public awareness and prove to the local Council there is public support.
