Over in the plunder forum there is a post by someone offering up for sail some great knotwork (check it out_ which got me thinking about handicrafts in general. I'm looking for pictures or descriptions of nautical projects people have tackled. Costumes are great but that's not what I had in mind for this thread. Barrels, Sea Chests, Cat-O-Nine-Tails, Seam Rubbers, Coins, Jewelry, Scabbards, Weapons, Scrimshaw (not to period but to 'ell with it), Pipes, Merrels Boards, or anything else you might have fashioned, show us what you've done. Alas, I personally only have some knotwork to my name and that vast bulk of that has been given away but I'm sure some of you out ther…

Avast me hearties. Whilst perusin' tha gift shop at tha San Diego Maritime Museum, I comes across a fun lil' book called The Pirate's Dictionary (by Terry Breverton). Me thinks it may be fun ta use this 'ere thread ta list some piratey phrases from time ta time an' give thar meanin's. Here be tha first listin'.... ABOVE BOARD: One origin of this phrase is that pirates hid "below board" if they were sneaking up on an unsuspecting merchantman. Pirate ships had up to 12 times the crew of an equivalent trading ship. If all the crew were ABOVE BOARD, all was fair and square.

Due to the frustratin', agrivatin', *&^%@# problems with me dial up modem, I had to head out ta sea for a few months to keep me sanity. Fortunatly, it were a profitable voyage, and I came back with enough swag to get DSL. Now I be flying — wind in me hair, cheeks a flappin, eyes tearin' and hangin' on to me keyboard fer dear life. Eeeehaaaa. So, I've dropped anchor and reefed sails on the Rakehell, and am buyin' all here a round, ta celebrate me homecomin'. Cheers.

Hey! Having a bit of insomnia, and found the site so I figured I'd stop by and register. Umm... Suppose I could say a bit about me, then... I'm sixteen years old, and live in the wonderfully boring state of Iowa, where our closest seas are comprised of corn. However, my earliest childhood memories of watching movies involve vague remembrance of Cutthroat Island, Treasure Island, Muppet Treasure Island, Braveheart, (No, not a pirate movie, but it's still one of the five I remember) and The Three Musketeers. (Porthos was always my favorite character, even in toddler years.) May have a bit of piratin' in the blood as well, both sides of the family are full of Navy men a…

My money is on all of us. Ring in if you think your full of yourself as a Pyrate or in any other period of reenactment. My family tells every one that I am so full of myself when it comes to my reenactment . Always talking about it. Always carrying photos around to show, well anyone. What could I say I have to agree. So I'm willing to bet most of you guys are too and you know it. Or am I alone on this one. François

I am kind of curious.... What pirate sites do you find yourself going back to over and over again, or which sites do you think have the most usefull information? I would like to get a list of NON_FORUM sites. The ones that the Pirate People think are the best. A lot seem to rehash the same information, and even less are updated regularly, but still, I would like to know.

Good day; I am known as Albatross, Mad Bird one of one. I have never pillaged a village, plundered a brig, of perished in a storm. In truth I have only been out to sea once, and in that two-week voyage the sea captured my heart. I have dreamed of going back ever sense. Perhaps I am just a hopeless romantic. And now I ask, how doses one become a Pirate?

Hi, Pub Management? Daniel here. I screwed up my ability to post. My old e-mail address, derby@joplin.com, expired some weeks ago. I decided to change it to danimal@pyracy.com, but when I changed it I couldn't get my validation e-mail. So here I am, reregistered under the appropriately embarrassing nickname of "Oops." I sent off an e-mail yesterday to pyracy@graysail.com, but I don't know if it ever got there. Is there anything to be done to revive my old account?
