  1. QUOTE (JohnnyTarr @ Aug 23 2006, 08:06 AM)

    My sweet lady, I am need of a set of plans to a good, fast, and shallow drafted boat. To start the bargining I offer exclusive transport service for the term of 12 months. What say Ye.

    I have no use of transport if I intend to stay in des waters~~

    But I will tink on your barter.

    I do belive that I misspoke. For transport services I was thinking of anything that you would need transported to or from your place. I figure that you might have need of such service. I could guarantee safe passage of goods and materials for ye. Please think on it. If you find that this offer is no good for ye please counter it.

  2. See I just didn't catch the difference in the length of the coat. I, for some reason, though that only the officers wore coats. I don't know why because the sailors had to wear something around the horns. I do have a question for you Kass. In your patterns do you have one that has both a top and bottom in it? Like that first picture that you had.

  3. Yes I have looked at her site. I have heard of the sailors jacket before, I mean I did spend three years in the Navy. I guess that it just looked to be more of a Captains coat too me. So the Captains were longer and more decrotive and had pockets? So much seems to have been lost to me I just don't know where to look for this information yet. I have got to get better at researching.

  4. Ok everytime I look for sailors clothes I can find most stuff on what the captains wore. I would like to do a more common sailor look. After all there were more sailors than captains right? But to make the outfit I would need pictures. Pictures of yourselves or from books would be great.

  5. I am very disapointed in my last haul. It shall cost me more in repairs, and paying the crew than I almost managed to capture. So it seems that I will not be able to make it for this weekend. I must find cheeper entertainment or go back out to sea. I will miss meeting you all. I hope to be able to goto Bristol for Labor Day weekend.

  6. Ok while not really pirate related, I mean what would a pirate need a tent for? Either he sleeps with a woman, in a ditch, or on a deck. But we are reenactors and since work quite a bit on land. So I am in the market for a nice tent. But on priceing them out I figure that I could make one for cheaper. I would like to know the difference between sail canvass and tent canvass. A few pictures of GAoP tents would be great too. I am guessing that what ever the armies used.
