Shello!!! My name is Angel Starfish, and I live on the beaches of San Diego. I’m originally from Atlantis, where my father (the crown prince) and grandfather (King Neptune) were born. I have a human mother who I’m trying to find, which is why I’m on dry land and not living with my family. I enjoy singing, crafts, music, chocolates, writing, riding horses and taking barefooted walks along the beach. I was born with the rare ability to have legs at low tide (when I’m on land) and have a tail at high tide (whether or not I’m in the water). (This may or may not be because I have a human mother). I also have the talent to speak to sea creatures, such as octopi, fish and shar…

It's time for the Secret Gift Exchange! Those of you who've been around know we've coordinated this event for more than five years with a reasonable amount of success and a few of us/you were looking forward to it again this year. If you're not looking forward to it, you can move along, or you can blame your compatriots who are. Or you can just blame me, I like this event. We've had a lot of changes here in the last few months, over the last couple of years we've seen a substantial drop off in Pub usage. Many of us who are still here, have been here for years; as we go through our lives our time in the Pub waxes and wanes. I'm sure you'll all agree that we're thankful …

I'm sure no one here remembers me. I was referred to this board by a friend, and I posted a bit about my crew and the sail boat I lived on at the time, but then I kind of fell off the face of the planet. I was a young man, 19, and my father had just passed away. I inherited some money and spent it foolishly. I partied a lot, and pushed my girlfriend away. When it was gone, much of my crew either stabbed me in the back in some way, or just quietly slunk into the background. Then my girlfriend left me. I moved back in with my mom, my room mates not being able to share their part of the rent, and I went back to school. I blamed my lifestyle choices, partying all the time wi…

Happy to have ran across the Pub. I have been learking for a few days and checking out the posts. Great information! I'm land locked in North Texas, but I have always had a fascination for anything pirate. I am almost certain that I must have been one in a past life. Books, movies, ren fairs,… can’t get enough. My next project is a flintlock pistol kit. Again, very happy to have found this site.

Greetings to all, my name is Abdikarim. However, my friends call me "Dik" (pronounced "Deek"). I am what you call a "true businessman" who unfortunately resides in a poverty stricken area in a small town called Merka a couple hundred kilometers from Somalia. I try to assist my townspeople financially in anyway I can. So, I guess I have been named the modern day "Robin Hood" of my land. I currently own several yachts. My newest addition is a 140' foot yacht called the "Dubbe" and I am in need of some crew members to man the Dubbe and assist me with my business dealings. Unfortunately, some of my original crew had very poor business skills and were arrested for some u…

I wanted to say hello to everyone here. I'm an older pirate from the Arizona Ren-Fair days. I have been plundering the southwest for some 30 years. I'm a nurse when not plundering and a retired minister. I can still do marriages or a quick exorcism after a night out pub crawling. My only real claim to fame was that I was one of the suppliers for baldriks and belts for Disney's POTC. The only down side to that is when you work for the mouse you sign a non compete clause that states you cannot sell anything related to POTC under your name.....sigh..... So as they say, "Fire your leward guns, or nail your colours to the mast." Extra credit if you can guess who made th…

Good Day t' ye All! I'm back. Been away for a bit. Life, as they say, intervened. But now back, with a crew- The Crew of the Mermayde. We're a crew from 1660-1670. Going for the very authentic, living history side of the game. One of Morgan's fleet. we're composed of survivors and exiles of the ECW, supporters of Charles II and looking to take the fight to the Spanish.

Hi to all, I am a reenactor of 18th century naval and maritime events, and will be moving to Port Lavaca, Texas next month, having just bought a 30 foot (modern) sailboat (soon to be rerigged for training purposes), with intentions of buying and retrofitting an even larger (41 to 50 foot) sailer in 2015. Before this extravigance however, I am seeking a core goup of people in the Texas Gulf Coast Region (and guests welcome from anywhere) to learn to sail the "little boat" and form the basis of a crew devoted to portraying all walks of maritme life from 1700 to 1799.. The ultimate goal is to reproduce something like a packet boat or dispatch ship complete with able crew, …

Had a great time at the Pirate's Salty Ball IV last night. Lots of old friends and some new ones. Much rum was consumed, many songs were sung. A hearty Well Done and Huzzah to Captain Thighbiter and the Brigands for a job damn well done. Hawkyns Captayne of the Mermayde.

Sory I've been away so long. I just finished taking the bar exam yesterday, and I was studying for it for about two months. I didn't dare come over here and do anything interesting for fear of getting distracted. If I can find what I did with that darn DVD of The Princess and the Pirate, I will post another pirate movie review.
