Looking Ahead To 2012

Ahoy me maties!

 We've been asked by all our lootin' pirate fans if there will be a Philly Pirate Cruise for 2011. As much as we would love to say "YES!", we sadly can't. We the organizers want to be sure to throw the best pirate cruise we can. But this year just wasn't in the cards to make that happen. So we decided to hold off settin' sail for this year, and focus on how to make 2012's Philly Pirate Cruise epic.

 Until then, YAR!

THANK YOU All You Scoundrels!

Thanks to all the pirates and their plundering friends who joined us Saturday night for the Eighth Annual Philly Pirate Cruise! With a smashing attendance, this was by far, the best Philly Pirate Cruise to date!

Special thanks to DJ Kiltboy and Dave Ghoul for keeping the pirates shaking their booty all night long! Also a big thanks to Captain Ed and his crew of the Ben Franklin Yacht - working throughout the night plying all the pirates with drink and food! And a round of thanks to this year's sponsors; Passional Boutique, MFDAS.com Tattoo, and Grendel's Den Design Studio!

Again, thank you everyone for helping make this the best Philly Pirate Cruise to date, and see everyone next year!

Meanwhile - if you took some candid shots during this year's Philly Pirate Cruise and want to include them in our upcoming community gallery, just contact us with the URL link and we'll take care of the rest.
