Many dark waters have I sailed, and none did I trust but my first mate, Gullhook. A trusty scallywag and fine seaman, if ye know his whereabouts, please contact me.
If ye have a steady hand at oar and have a sharp eye, join my crew and we shall conquer the seven Seas. If ye be an enemy, it is no matter, we shall forget all our woes and eat a meal and drink wine.
