My "pirate ship" of the moment is a decidedly antiquated paddle-boat that I accidentally scuttled this summer after joking how "unsinkable" she was. Oh, well, at least she was only in knee-deep water at the time, and "like the Mary Ellen Carter", she rose again (with the help of my neighbour's teenaged daughters who gamely bailed her out and helped me heave her sodden carcass up on shore for some overdue careening).

I was going to name her the Molly Brown before she submerged, but now that she's been raised, and patched up yet again with Bondo fiberglass, I'm thinking of settling on the Die Hard.

Cheers, Hester ... not sure what to call the other vessel in my "fleet" -- a banana-yellow fibreglass canoe to which the neighbours used to attach Chiquita stickers in order to tease me about the colour.

Presenting the Blue Dawg.

She's really a canoe fixed up for the little swabs to play pirates on.

Wow, Chloe! Your Blue Dawg is wonderful!

I see some creative use of duct-tape there. Red Green would be in awe.

Cheers, Hester

I think if I had a ship it would have to be named Black Widow with a picture of the spider painted on her somewhere. I think I would incorporate the spider in my flag too.

I already have the Rakehell, but I kinda like the name Diamond Dance—for the way sunlight sparkles on the water. I used the name in a short-story I wrote, and really liked it.

...schooners, islands, and maroons

and buccaneers and buried gold...

You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you. But if you're a good navigator, a least you'll know where you were when you died.......From The Ship Killer by Justin Scott.
