Windy II at 2007 Port Washington Pirate Festival
Thanks much, but I can't claim credit for them. I was busy directing the
"Pirate Invasion" scenario. We had a whole show written for the Port Washington Pirate Festival that wound up to a cannon battle between the town garrison and the "pirate ship." There is actually a mix of 2006 and 2007 in there, I realized. Captain Bob Marthai had her rigged with fore-and-aft sails in 2006 and in 2007 he had her rigged as brigantine with the foremast set with square sails. I think that's how she looks best. There was a heavy fog in 2007 and there are other photos of her looking very "ghosty" in many shots. Here are some great shots of the festival in 2006: http://bounding.wohlershome.net/gall...bum80/album05/ Here are some fun and foggy shots of the festival in 2007: http://bounding.wohlershome.net/gall...bum79/album60/ Port Washington is embracing its maritime heritage. The Maritime Heritage festival is on a 5-year plan to become a focal maritime event on the great lakes. They're planning on bringing in at least five ships every year and have maritime entertainment by Bounding Main (http://www.boundingmain.com) and other maritime-themed groups. Our trip to Bremen in August takes us out of this year's show, unfortunately, but we're all over the next four years! Dean (aka "Cap'n Jake") "Paul McGrane" wrote in message ...

Windy II at 2007 Port Washington Pirate Festival
A very smart man said "Do what you love and you'll never "work" again a day
in your life." This weekend's Pirate Festival was a gas, albeit, filled with lousy weather that cancelled a bunch of shows. There are some decent pics he http://bounding.wohlershome.net/gall.../PortPirate08/ Better pictures of the Windy will follow. As will a story of the disposition of Capt. Bob Marthai's two tall ships - a bittersweet story. Dean "Peter C" wrote in message news:w3n3k.19712$C12.10462@pd7urf3no... ......and a lot of work! Peter C "Paul McGrane" wrote in message ...
