Pirates Of The Caribbean Movie Promotion
The Buccaneers of the Black Fleet were out in force for the opening of Pirates of the Caribbean:On Stranger Tides.
3 days o' swashbucklin', singin', trivia, and dressing up the little scallywags as Jack Sparrow and Blackbeard and having them act out an epic battle all around the theatre.

San Francisco June 2010
While exploring the maritime museum, and surrounding area on a trip to San Francisco, during the NorCal Pirate festival- we came upon this strange store- part high end clothing store, part maritime museum- only these items were for sale!
The beckets are fascinating, I have been told they were the pinnacle of the sailors art- and oftentimes took 2 or 3 years to finish! Looking at them up close, it is almost impossible to imagine how these were constructed. Amazing.

Other fascinating items include a seaman's chest with a finely knotted fringe, and a ship's wheel, mounted on a curious wooden cabinet, and several ship's models.
Along with Sailor Jerry clothing as well.- Album created by Gunpowder Gertie

Russian Tallship Kruzenshtern
On February 27th, 2010, the newly formed Buccaneers of the Black Fleet visited the Russian Tallship Kruzenshtern, which was in Vancouver for the 2010 Olympics.
Reaction was awesome to our presence, from the general public to the crew, who treated us warmly, and made us welcome.
