By the powers, you're right! I always figured there were more captains than hands on the Internet. That's the lovely thing about the digital sea, we can all indulge our egos and imaginations. The only swabbies I have in real life are three feline bilge rats that don't give a rat's ass about following my orders.

Now I'll have a tankard of that fine, aged, rare digital rum!

I 'appen to have a fine crew of 8 at my command... course, we are still working on our ship... (more of a little boat, but it'll look the part when we're done :P ) Then we'll start takin' over whatever lakes strike our fancy.

And 'er's a round to ye captains who are still searchin' for a crew! May the wind be ever at yer back, and may ye 'ave luck in yer travels.

:P:P

:rolleyes:

....... okay.... how about a little survey..... and I know we have done this before, but, who cares..... how many here are really captns...... just a thought................... Flint

I'm an (almost) cap'n. My vessel won't be sea worthy until next summer, though.

Well for the Juryrig there is more crew than boat. We currently have 14 souls in addition to her Captain. All but 4 of the crew is based in the Wasington DC area.

Now we just need to "Acquire" a bigger boat !

Rumors of my death are entirely premature.

Well ya know a man's place is...

In me bunk!!!

:rolleyes:

Many call themselves 'Captain', but they have no ship!!

Hell, a true pirate Captain never knows his place. That's why he roves the sea takin' it from others. :P

'ere, wit all that wenchin' going on, when does ya have time to do any plunderin?!

:lol:

Between the 8 members of my crew, we own 3 boats... unfortunately, only one of them be seaworthy, and even she is in drydock at the moment, being re-fitted. She floats, but at the moment is more of a longboat than a sloop... The other two are motorboats, and having no motor.... well, one doesn't get very far

:rolleyes:

Still I'd rather crew aboard the Royaliste then Captain my own boat.

If I had a way to get to California, I'd happily crew aboard the Royaliste meself... that is one beauty of a boat... er, ship.

The motor is the only thing on my boat that DOES work!

327 Chevrolet engine.... Hauls arse! I have to rip everything out and replace the deck this year, as it's gone soft.

'tis enough to drive a scallywag to drink!

Nice...

my first boat was a 15 foot tri-hull... the one I got now is a pitiful 12 foot sailboat... but she'll make a pretty little sloop when I'm done with her.

we also have a junked 20 foot v-hull we're thinking of gutting and converting to sail... we be poor pirates

Arr.... I know I be not a Cap'n. I be but a sailor, and heck... don't e'en like the title so much. More o' a term o' respect, really. I don't hafta call the captain o' the Royaliste "cap'n", but I do, nearly every time I talk to him (at least in the email, onboard it be different). Jus' seems right somehow...

Well I ain't no Captian and nor do I want to be! Yup it seems that there be a whole lot o' Captians around. Jest remember, on a pirate ship ye can be voted out! :D

I'll stick to me wenchin' ways and occassional 'picker o' treasure' when the opportunity strikes! :D
