The pirate

Port Townsend is a great place to find interesting characters. We followed this fellow down a pier, hoping to get a decent shot of him. “How far can he go?” said DH. Then he disappeared down a stairway to a floating dock and climbed into an inflatable boat. A puff boat? How pirate-like is that?

He motored out to a rather nice sailboat anchored out. Never did get a complete shot of his getup which included just about everything except a sword, eye patch, and parrot on his shoulder. The boat is named Free Spirit.

  1. What a great shot of this guy. Maybe he’s on his way to Alaska to steal some gold from prospectors who have already discovered it? Or maybe he’s just a strange person who really thinks he’s a pirate. Or maybe he’s dressed like that to attract folks with cameras – like you? Well, it’s all possible! Sheesh!
