  1. Actually.,the heels were a cowboy boot heal (leather also) they are from Champion attitude., but after slipping all over the deck of the Lynx., I opted for a second pair from champion., (these ) . With a neopreme sole and heal.,as well as a roper horma heal., 1" and other custom changes.,so far it grabs and hangs much better on wet decks., and proves to be a far superior boot than my first pair. they are a resolable boot and made for long ware. Authentic no., a happy customer with good footing in a fun boot., you bet., and the knees..., well I am turning into my father and not happy about it (
  2. If you take the boot on the left and fold it a second time (Up) wouldnt it essentially be the boot on the right? Only the boot on the left wouldnt be a catch-all ? Besides that fact that the men you mentioned Were ALL killed fer wearing the uncomfortable and unattractive attire.now with that said......................................, I like my boots., Chicks like my boots., Children run up to me and I give'm treasure (Jeweled rings.,and gems and coins) and their parents take their pitcures with me. You aint takin MY BOOTS FROM ME!
  3. This thread sounds like our dream thats coming true. A tropical beach technically is any where in the world up to 23 degrees above or below the equator. We bought our beach at 10 degrees north ., definitely tropical., theres 225 fruit bearing coconuts on it. Its not much only 168 feet of beach., we go every year ., and will be going again on April 17th 06. We are working on some things and it will take us 3 more years before we can make the final leap of faith and go live there. My cannon maker "The Royaliste " hooked me up with ., did complete my guns and we did ship them., and the 2- 340lb barrels are there now !!! (For the Sea-Wall)., The old english swivel is there also., and the new bronze HMS Victory cannon., are a bit small and will be decorative in the bar area. (However will will bring them out for firing when we fire the Port and Straboard sea-wall cannons during festivities) We are building a small pirate themed Scuba resort there...., so the employees will be in "Garb " daily. One small catch ., its in the Philippines. This means a passport., and a very very very long flight., however once there your money is 50 to 1 and spends that way., If anyone ever wants to go.,there is much to see., including 7107 islands. Its an English speaking country., and San Miguel makes a really great beer., and Tanduhay is a sweet Rhum.
  4. Awesome, I got excited and bought the DVD., it still isnt out yet but if anyone is interested here it is. T200 DVD
  5. Could it be,.that he basically laid down at his time of capture? Their all dead now so I cant really hold anything against them. However for the most successful, Ching Shih was probably one of the most notorious pirates. With unquestionably the largest fleet .,tho they may have been Junks they were many. And in her time in the east., the government feared her.
  6. I would have to go with Calico Jack Rackham., his flare for style and his uncanny ability to satify two women at one time.., *Wicked-Wicked-Grin*..., oh and fill me tankard with Rhum if'n ya please Raymond. Aye' also Jack had a very savvy flag ...indeed he did.
  7. If you ever heard me play., its definitely a tavern instrument Sir William LOL . Guitar 1521 Ferdinand Zor Guitar 1949 Les Paul It really didnt change much..., but I do prefer my 81 Les Paul CherryTop.
  8. Here Here I second that motion William
  9. I collect Leather hats., Civil War., and Tricorn types., All Leather., a couple are suede (Civil War Kepi's) but even most of them are a Black smooth grained leather., and I am happy., I live in Washington State where it rains 9 months of the year., I never owned a felt hat., and doubt I ever will., my daily work hat of 23 years is a black Kepi (Same hat and cleans right up)., Do what you want ,.,say what you will., but a good leather hat is had to beat and would be lost or stolen before wearing out or going limp or curlying in the rain . No Tar here. I do have 2 Excaliber tricorns a Black and a Brown. I got the first hat and was happy with the quality., but something was lacking., When I order the second., I measured the brim of the first. It was 4"., the 2nd hat I order ., I ordered in a 5" brim., Wow What a differance., and that was it . Do your self a favor and request a wider brim or theyll just send a 4"
  10. I dont believe Capt'n Robert Bartholomew will get much traction here..., I dont think Cap'n Mac has done any raids lately on the Royal Mail. Actually Cap'n Mac When you have access to a lathe I would like to discuss the length and wood type of a belaying pin and buy a custom from you. PM me on the topic if this is currently a possibility. There are a couple of woods I am considering., Perhaps the Purple heart or a Paduk(Orange in color) I am still researching a bit.
  11. I am not sure what study hall is? I left school and home at 14 for a job., and have been working ever since. If it is a disiplinary item.,I am not so sure it really works. I know a swift kick all up around yer arse works wonders for disipline.
  12. Pre-Gastrol Insomnia accompanied by Post Upper Abdominal Distinction
  13. Cherry's Pedrosoli Queen Anne was $235. for the nickel plated steel or 250. for the brass. But even at that the lock mech is all steel and will require grease like the sea service. In the Philippines I am probably going to hang all my pistols on one wall each with enough grease to "Look bad" But at differant times I will pull one down to play with it when we have a festival and launch the cannons in our pirate attire..., at that time the one gun I am using that day will get polished out. Its the only way I can do it. The guns over there in the PH that security is carrying around looks like pure rust., and my brother inlaw is a port security guard and has to polish his brass uniform pieces twice a week for inspection., the humidity is that bad. I have had two of my guitars there for 3 years (each time I go visit I take stuff) after one year when i returned the strings fell to dust at touch. (Need stainless strings) I am considering a clear coat on some of my metal items to stop oxidation? You dont notice the Humidity when you are Scuba Diving :)
  14. On July 13th I ordered my QA part no#S329-50 . This is of course a Pedrosoli as well but its a brass. I had already figured my sea-service pistol will need to be well greased in the Philippines (Very Humid) And so I opted for the brass Queen Anne., according to Cherry's its a 90 day wait., they said they dont stock them., made to order., looking forward to it !
