some of you may have questions for the crew. if you do we will try to
address them as quickly as possible. one that has come up recently is
how do I get started being a pirate if I am unable to afford an outfit
right away. We as a crew can help you get started by giving you a few
suggestions. each of us can give you ideas. here is how i got started.
Ahoy
Mates! I am Shipwreck John, Boatswain of The Cursed Few. New recruits
and potential recruits ask how did I get my piratical clothing or as we
like to refer to it, garb. Well to be as honest as pirate can be, I
acquired most of mine from merchants as am not a skilled tailor. That
means I can't sew very well. With that being said, you may say, Boats, I
don't have a lot of coin just laying around where I can just get
everything I need at once, what do I do? I says price mil is an
option, meaning get it as you can. Not including footwear it ran me
about 90.00 dollars to get my garb initially and I didn't buy that all
at once. There are several places to acquire the items you need which I
won't go into detail here, but let's say you want to come and see what
we do and hang out with us. Pirate on the cheap and get what you can
when you can. A couple of ideas for guys, Do you have and old white
dress shirt you don't use? You can cut the collar off, cut the sleeves
off or just roll them up and make some tea and soak it to discolor it.
Cut shirt tail so it is even around the bottom. Wear and old pair of
black pants, and take off the back pockets and an old pair of dress
shoes you don't use or are thinking about getting rid of,
and there
you have it. You don't need to be fancy right away, for most of us have
been doing this for years and acquired everything over a long period
time. I say start simple and build as you go. Want to know more about
where I get my clothing or other questions about my piratical adventures
