PIRATE CODE of the CREWS of the PIRATE NATION: 

     You can be a member of multiple pirate crews. We are all part of the Pirate Nation. Like RUM, different crews have different flavors. We are pirates... all of us sail the seas from ship to ship, wherever the current adventure leads us. One of the beauties about the fun filled world of pirating is that no pirate is limited to the number of crews they can join, the number of events they can attend or the number of costume items they can pack into their trunk. The pirate world is a wide and wonderful place full of opportunities!

      

CREW ARMBANDS: If you would like to order a Brethren of the Space Coast crew armband for $25 (wholesale price), send $25 via PayPal as a friend/family payment to outlawpirate@icloud.com by FRIDAY, AUGUST 19th and email us with your name. Armbands are custom embroidered. After you are sworn in, you are authorized to wear your crew armband. You can pick up your armbands at the induction ceremony.
