Washington state is also prime raiding er I mean cruisin grounds . I hear that the Tallships race will be startin in Victoria B.C. in 2005 . Who would want to miss that ?

Bar shot was similar to chain shot in that it involves two cannon balls . With chain shot the balls are conected by a length of chain whereas bar shot is connected by a solid iron bar O-O both were used against the masts or rigging of an opposing ship the idea is that the shot could demast a ship or foul the rigging making it harder for the enemy to manouver. It was also usefull in sweeping the enemies deck of crew members cutting a fairly large swath ..

I hail from the balmy west coast of Canada not far from Vancouver B.C. But originally came from a warm canal . Or so me Ma tells me ...

An early VD present? I never gots a present for havin....

.....oh......sorry......

There is, howsumever, something vaguely disturbing about the pirate tyke with big eyes concept. Kinda like havin a cuddly Komodo Dragon.

Beware of the pyrate with the cute an innercent face as ye well knows he is plannin to steal something . If yer lucky its just yer heart ...

I wishes ye well on yer endevour mates an although I may not be able to be with ye in the flesh I shall be with thee in spirit and I shall raise a few in honor of the black hearted bastard an hopes he some day finds his head

How about the name Epona . The name of the Celtic goddess of the horse also assotiated with helping the soul on its final journey . She is also assotiated with Water .

How 'bout Gráinne Ni Mhaille, after the famous 16th century Irish woman pirate?

Grace O'malley now there was a woman who knew no limits ...

Geesh, that must have been one hell of mustache ride!

Rumba Rue

**No kids and proud of it**

I'm thinkin it was likely just somethin in the air , Most likely her ankles ...

Congrats there mate . I suppose .....

'Ere ye be, mate! At 73, it be a shot 'o rum, an' two hits 'o Viagra, enjoy!!

Happy birthday there Sinclare , but I'd be careful with that there viagra mate I heard that if ye gets one o them pills stuck in yer throat you'll wake up with a terrible stiff neck ...

Salt breeze in yer face , the smell of freshly poured rum , the smell of new burned powder mixed with the scent of well oiled leather ,the smell of a well cared for ship . These are the smells that I find most gratifyin .

Merry as this appears to be the actual day of the blessed event of yer birthday I wishes ye the best an I hopes you recover soon from the celibrations , an just remember most of it just washes off with a garden hose . And remember don't spend to much tyme in the scuppers as the folks "like me fer e.g. " aren't of the highest calbre ... 58 cal at best

" Yo Ho a pyrates life fer me ... "

Happy birthday Merry me Lass an I wishes thee long life an good health an if ye keeps yer blade as sharp as yer witt I fathom you'll have both.

May you live to be 120 and may the last words you hear be mine ...

THAT TWERE LT. PROSTITUTE FROM YELLOW BEARD :

"Arrrgh it is the way what I always wanted to go murdered by me own son . " Yellow beard a true classic .

Lookin' at all these here ships... notice tha' ya don't see anythin' but Sloops n' Schooners? Nary a one is a square rigger... 

Or is I lookin' in th' wrong ports?

Check out the original link at Cool Boats

There's a couple of barquentines and a hermaphrodite brig (labled as a brigantine). Still, there's nothing wrong with a gaff rigger in my opinion. And anything wood is a plus as well.

Coastie

Well Lad you may also try a site called Appollo duck they are another big brokerage and they has some interesting and unusual vessels .

This be more what I'm lookin' at.

Garden Schooner

Anything that'll weather hurricane force winds in the oceans around the Horn will do for me.

Coastie

Coastie try checking out Sea dragon schooner links they have a section for schooners for sale ye might just find what yer lookin for . :)

As I will probably not be in any shape to type yer birthday greetins when they are do I wishes ye the best on yer birthday now Lass .

Faire wynds an followin seas to ye Lass . I wish ye much plunder an much frollickin on yer birthday.
