Family friendly Friday sailing on 12th July was Pirate night!!

Blustery conditions kept all but the most fearless cutthroats ashore.  However a few brave young pirates took to the seven seas and the rest battled bravely with (water) pistols on the beach.

Later pirates young and old were rewarded with a treasure chest full of treats!

Shiver me timbers matey! A fabulous evening was had by all!!
