Sail into the Sunset 2008
This June 5, 6, 7, and 8, Sail into the Sunset is coming to Boston. It's a mini-convention/raiding party/informal booze-up/weekend slumber party for Pirates of the Caribbean fans and Age of Sail buffs. It's been held almost every year since the first PotC movie came out in 2003, and this year I volunteered to be host. As there are a lot of people on my flist who (a) like piracy and (b) live in the greater Boston area or could drive in for the day, I want to spread the word.
We are going to spend the weekend going out and swashbuckling in the daytime and watching pirate movies in the evenings in my hotel room. There are presently about fourteen people coming. There is no entry fee. I'm renting a projector, though, and we're going to pass the hat to pay for that (no more than $15/person). Right now, it looks like we'll be going on a day sail out of Boston Harbor and spending an afternoon at the US Constitution. Movies include: all three PotC movies, the Disney Treasure Island, Master and Commander, and possibly the Hornblower miniseries. The SitS livejournal community is
