Welcome Aboard!

What you are looking at, just above these words, is the shoreline off the port side of the Sea Hawk, a beautiful ship out of Portsmouth. She's a privateer vessel working for the government of these newly declared United States of America. I am your guide and ship’s cabin boy. I’m also the cook’s helper.
Around here, people call me Jack.
I respectfully ask you to do the same.


As a guest of the Captain, you are free to move about the ship. But I must tell you that this crew is a hardworking bunch that must tend to their duties without unnecessary interruption.

On board, you will find many things to bide your time at sea. To explore our offerings, you can follow the links on the beach above. You can also use the links on the left side of your porthole or the ones below. Let me tell you a bit about each area:




My Story: Look here for excerpts from my adventures on land and sea. They are chronicled in 3 parts by author Bonnie Pryor.



My Diary: This is where I record my most personal secrets! It’s where I write down my true thoughts and feelings about the most exciting time in my life. No one on board knows about this diary. If I trust you enough to let you read it, I trust you enough to keep it secret!



Crafts and Activities: A collection of neat things you and your crew can make and do to mark your own adventures aboard the Sea Hawk.



Recipes: I often help our cook, Dobbs, make the best food from some of the worst ingredients. Food and water gets old quickly when away from land for too long. If you are feeling hungry, and brave, try them out.



Books: Kind of like a library, this is where you’ll find a list of good reads. It’s useful when the crew is too busy to talk to you, or if you are so bored watching the waves that you need to slip away on a different adventure.



Reviews: I've already put in a good word for you with the Captain. Now I trust that you can put in a good word for me. Some of the crew don't think much of me now, but that will change with you on my side.


Now it’s time for me to get back to my duties. As you move around the ship, do not be afraid to comment on anything you see. We’re like a big family here where everyone matters. Just be sure to stay out of the crew’s way!
