PIRATE CANOEING!!!
PirateCanoe.com is the hub for what my friends and I call “Pirate Canoeing.” It is simply heading out onto the water with some agreed-to rules for mischief while we paddle a few miles. We turn the fun up to 11 by building water weaponry and embracing a pirate theme for the event.
We:
- dress like pirates
- use homemade water cannons
- bring squirt guns
- throw snowballs made with a snow cone machine
- paint our faces
- fly black flags (and white ones when needed)
- obey the pirate code
- yell like pirates
- and have TONS of fun.
On this site you’ll find:
- Ideas you can use to host your own such event.
- Photos and links to videos from our events to get a flavor of them.
- Parts and Plans for battle tested water-weaponry.
- The rules we follow (Captain Steve’s Pirate Code) that make it so that everyone has a way to enjoy the event whether they are a 0 or 11 on the mischief enjoyment scale.
Maybe this will inspire you to host your own event — We have certainly enjoyed ours.
