capnwilliam Posted May 8, 2003 Share Posted May 8, 2003 Any mates live in the St. Augustine, FL area, or spent much time there? Janet and I are taking a vacation there later this month; no particular itinerary. We're interested in any tips you might have about anything piratical or nautical in the area. Capt.

Jamaica Rose Posted May 16, 2003 Share Posted May 16, 2003 Any mates live in the St. Augustine, FL area, or spent much time there?Janet and I are taking a vacation there later this month; no particular itinerary. We're interested in any tips you might have about anything piratical or nautical in the area. Capt. William You should of course visit the Castillo de San Marcos. The fort was strengthened and fortified as a result of an attack by pirates (written about in the March and May 2002 No Quarter Given issues). There's also the Spanish Quarter -- great for an historic atmosphere and background setting for portraits. To find out about all things pyratical in St. Augustine, Jacksonville and coastal North Florida, I suggest you contact Capt. Graybeard (Mark Tingen) at: Mark Tingen, 1198 Sandpiper Ln. East, Atlantic Beach, FL, 32233, phone: 904-247-1145, [Email: photo2u@attbi.com ] Have a great trip, --Jamaica Rose "Shoot first!
