I got all kinds of light s to install this weekend, we have a projector that will protect flames onto the mainsail and a smoke machine that will pump out enough fog to set off all the horns.

The whole famn damily is going to be dress as priates, as we sing and freeze our a$$es off.


Should be a kick in the butt

We did the parade last night and had a freak'n blast, had 15 people all dressed as dead pirates with the exception my son who was Davy Jones and a young actor who looked, sounded and walked like Jack Sparrow.

Must have been around 75 or more boats and 1000's of spectators lined the shore, it was awsome.

We did evrything we started out to do except the flames on the main sail, ( we weren't allowed to havethe sail up ) we end up projecting flames on the mast ( wood ) and that looked pretty cool from what I heard, I couldn't see.

I wasn't able to get pics of the parade, just of the boat in the slip and I'll post those when I remember were I put the camera, However, the my dead crew shot abunch and they said they'll email me copies.

All-n-All, we had a awsome time, both friend and family said it will be something they'll remember for a long time

And you can't beat that


oh yeah, the fog machine got broken so that didn't happen either, but I got my hands on a full size priate chest and we filled it full of gold stuff and lights so it looked like a treasure chest

that are 12v dc
target has 12v ac led x-mas lights that we discussed would probably work on dc so HAPPY CHRISTMAHAUNAQUANZICA to all and TURN OUT THAT LIGHT!!!

Sailorsams.com sells LED rope lights in 12, 24, 11v. by the foot. Red ones are also good for night lights in the cabin when mountd around the base of cabinets or seats.

I hope to find more pics somewhere, this was Sat. night before the priate chest and before we cover the boat in cheeze cloth

We used 420' of led rope lights and 185' ice cicle lights and I don't know how many yards of cheeze cloth, but in the end it looked pretty dang good
