Pirate ship sighting today, they sailed from the front yard back to their lair. They had fun taunting passers by from the yard but are looking forward to supervising the next build.

Halloween Pirate Ship
19 Oct 18:
Worked on the pirate ship yard decoration for Halloween, she will have a motley crew. Plans are from the Winfield Collection. Traced onto 1/2 marine grade plywood with carbon paper, marine grade should hold up better in the yard.
Cut out the outlines for the hull and topside with a DeWALT jigsaw.

PSV (Pirate Sailing Vessel) ONKAHYE will be commissioned tomorrow as the Commodore's Gulf Squadron flagship, ready to seek prizes in the front yard. She fit out at LOA 8', LWL 6', Beam 1/2". Her spars, sails, deck and hull are made of Douglas Fir. 2 masted frigate, square rigged, she carries twenty-four 32-pound carronades on the spar deck, as well as a long 18-pound “chase” gun forward, and thirty 24-pound long guns on the gun deck. Motley crew of 6, 2 down below on the gun deck. Shiver your timbers!!
