I'm with the Kern County Pyrate Guild/Rack and Ruin out of Bakersfield. We'll have a camp again this year at Ojai down by the water. Our camp always has a boat in it..so just look for the sprit sail sticking up..

I'm selling a pair of these - size 12 http://caboots.zoovy.com/product/1XCSWILTRN/CUSTOM_WILL_TURNER_BOOTS.html And a pair of these - size 12 http://caboots.zoovy.com/product/1XCSBARB/CUSTOM_CAPTAIN_BARBOSSA_BOOTS.html Custom antique dark brown stain and in awsome shape.. $150.00 each I'll have them at the ojai pirate faire this weekend and then If I don't sell them there, I'll put some pics of them on here and sell them...but I'd like to sell them at ojai if possible. If you're interested and you're going to be at Ojai, message me..I'll do some trading as well, what do you have?

Sounds like a plan!! I'll put my house up for sale today! Petee, are you with one of the groups at Ojai? If so, where is your camp? I'll look for ya and give an official hello in person....it's nice seeing people from the pub..

First weekend is gonna be the best!! The The second weekend will be even better! Now if can can squeeze in a third weekend! ....hmmm.

I'm horrible and i'm working it out, are there any confident pirates on this thread who wanna post some video of themselves speaking? That would be helpful for us who are working on our tongue..crazy idea then?

When in doubt, use a Gilbert Gottfried accent....works everytime!

Yup yup...and I've replied.. thank you!!

Everyone looks so awsome!! Cheeky, you look stunning as always!!

Please, that would be great to hang around you guys once again. Camping,I would have a small sail for sleeping under and the clothes on me..and of course rum, marlboro's (pirates would have smoked them) seaweed and a corral for my sea horse!!

Will all the lads be attending...Would you mind if I squat in with you?

Wonderfully done Mooseworth!

I hate it when a pirate is wearing a sugerloaf helmet on deck..oh, and spurs.

Are there any Reenactment groups on the west coast with hand sewing requirements?...

What size o' bit you plan on using?

Would this be period? Those stockings are wool. (I know were in twill but I just can't help myself)

This has been a hard subject to research for me. I've found several emblems, what I've been trying to research is what was the size for the majority of labeling on cooperage and crates? We've been guessing thus far.. The VOC box in the pic is one of our ice chests/food storage and as you can see we labeled the box quite large....hmmm. So while were on the subject, anyone have any research on sizing as well? I hate assuming, but one would think that they would want to be labeled so sailors could see whats what when unloading goods..

Everyone is looking really nice! Props to you all! Here are a couple new shots of my newest coat..I used my own pattern, but I used a machine to sew cause I'm impatient....This is one of the coats I made from a heavy white wool blanket from the Surplus store for $10.00 bucks, then dyed with blue ritz dye..very warm and soft..Thanks for letting me share..

Sailed today.. My Little 18 ft wooden spritsail skiff.. very swift. I can sail from Port San Luis to Morro Bay in 2 seconds (not really). I was stopped and boarded by the coast Guard when I sailed into the bay for not having any markings on her and was given a warning..They asked why I was wearing Breeches and buckle shoes. Doesn't everyone? Then they asked where my 'Pirate" hat was, I told them a Cracken ate it..whatever.

Not correct. Tis but a ren frock.

I want one please.
