.....Define OCD.......I never get tired of 1 and 3, but ye can send 2 to Davy Jones' Locker......The Fish Pyrates were like them Flyin' Monkies in the Wizard of Oz.....Just not as creepy.......Although 2 was ok minus the Fish Crew........Will probably never grow tired of any pirate movies....Can't wait for 4........

.....Thanks for the info......will be watchin' this one as my ancesters were involved in Import Export, if ye will, as well...The Triangle Trade was one of events that helped us on our way to becoming a viable commodity to England. Also it opened up our whole Eastern Seaboard to Sea Rovers lookin' for profit......

....Aye Laddies......Got to throw in with several others here.....The Hern Iron works is an awesome cannon....The disclaimer is, I suppose for liabilities, and justly so....When I sailed aboard the Royaliste I never knew their guns were from Hern... I found Hern on me own, searchin' the web....My dealings with them were great .....I mounted two swivels on carriages and have been totally satisfied with them. Tales and I believe RHJ have smaller carronades, but "Oh God," do they roar. They put out a quality barrel at a good price and if ya have friends in need of barrels....Order En-Mass....Ye can save a ton of Gelder....

........Surprized ye know about Pirates Cove.......I don't think ye'll find there's no buried treasure there, but there is alot of Booty....My bad....That cove became popular in the 70's, I don't know about the legend, but it has always been called pirate's cove...Mostly prohibition smugglers I spose.....But who knows with a mission only 10 miles inland...Have ta check it's history...

....Sorry i mis-spoke meself.....militaryheritage.com ships their's undrilled....Not Loyalist Arms.......
-
........I purchased a bunch from middlesex village trading and am very happy with them......They came with touch holes already drilled. I believe Loyalists Arms still can't be shipped with touch holes drilled. If ya never drilled one, this can be touchy( no pun intended). Both sutlers are comparible in price and put out a good product......

Aye Laddies.....Jes because it aint documented, don't mean it weren't practiced...I've had me run ins with the Ren-Nazis about this.......My wife will be smokin her pipe and wearing it where-ever she chooses.....And a hat is a fittin' place....Check with the Rev-War people....It's a safe and convenient place ta keep yer pipe in reach...Iron Hand......

.....I think," If it holds yer stockings up, It's acceptable....Frenchies was big on ribbonds, and I got to admit, it looks good in a pyratical sorta way....My favorite garters were made by a fellow re-enactor , Greg Harrington... He does alot of historic advising and work on accoutraments for the movie industry...i.e Last of the Mohicans,The Patriot, etc.....They are , for lack of better words, Eastern Longhunter Garters....Problem is I lost one at our POTC 3 event in Bakersfield California.....Since then I wear one of them with a G.Gedney Godwin I purchased over 30 yrs ago....Kind of a Pyrate make due unmatched pair....I kinda like the look and historical correctness of the combo. I think ,"The more flamboyant, The Better," for our purposes.....Dare Ta Be Different.........Iron Hand....
