All kidding aside Saber and Talls, If the good Capt fell over board, You would then have the opportunity to be Capt? What a great way to aquire a tall ship No wonder I don't have many friends, and those I have sleep with one eye open!

What I did to the guard and pommel of my M.R. Dutch cutass was to fire blue it. It looks great. Regarding the blade, do not keep it in the leather sheath. That allows the moister from the leather to play with the blade

A point well taken. How about sea-boots? Does any one have information on Sea-boots from the period?

Well for meself. In the non-pyrate world, I have me a 100 ton ticket. Captain and all. All power boat stuff, tugs and ferries. Run me self up and down the pacific coast in power boats. Sailed as a young man just getting started with the tall ship stuff. Went out this week- end on the Lynx and played in the tops on the Chieftian.

Sail Bags, and boat covers. We are restoring a replica of the Bounty;s boat. The boat itself is ok, just needed some oiling. We are spar varninshing the inside and gun'ls and painting the sweeps. The boat cover will be machine sewn but we are hand sewing the sail bags. Bully MacGraw

Greetings to the crew of the Royaliste. That tripple decker, big ass boat that does not know the Rules of The Road" is the Roin owned by the Oricle Billionaire, Larry Ellison.
