jollyjacktar Posted August 27, 2012 Posted August 27, 2012 Hello everyone, As some of you may know our brother Adam Cyphers is in need of some cash, and has been selling off a lot of his kit. I'd prefer not to see this happen to one of my favorite sailor/ blacksmith/people in the living history community. I don't have the cash to buy any of his stuff, but I do have a map I'm willing to part with It’s hand plotted, sketched, then inked, on cotton laid paper. The overall map is 34 ½” tall and 24 ½” inches wide. The top half of the map covers from the 30 degrees latitude (central Florida) to 15 degrees (South of Jamaica) It even includes soundings around Key West :-) The lower half of the map is an enlarged map of the island of Jamaica including an inset of Port Royal Harbour, again including soundings and shoals as well as a decorative cartouche in the lower left of the map. I'm not going to put a price on this but I promise that I'll cover the shipping to you so that everything you pay for the map will go directly to Adam. Feel free to ask questions and I can't wait to help Adam out. Yours & co Cran
jollyjacktar Posted August 27, 2012 Author Posted August 27, 2012 First of all I'd like to thank everybody for their interest, and their generosity as the map has sold for $150. I know Adam will be greatly appreciative. Yours & co Cran

Jas. Hook Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 Jollyjacktar - The custom New York Harbor/Long Island map was received yesterday. Fantastic! I don't know whether I'll use it as an event display piece or just frame it for the wall. Thanks for helping yer shipmate Adam through your craft. Jas. Hook Ahoy Pub mates!... If you'd like to be a help'n out, I believe Cran is still taking orders towards the help Adam project. "Born on an island, live on an island... the sea has always been in my blood." Jas.
