Captain Crowjoe here from Theme Actors’ Group and the Privateers.

Thanks for the mention on the Privateers’ Treasure Quest. ‘Tis always a challenge to set the likes o’ ye and the scalawags that were seekin’ the treasure to sailin’ in circles. ‘Twas eventually found, o’ course, by 4 lucky mates that finally came up with the right answer and Yellowbeard never even knew he were sittin’ on the treasure all eve!

Hunker Hawser be a simple game that helps would-be-bucaneers hone their skills with balance and rope handling.
Two players stand each on a short small box (thier “ship”) about 2 fathoms apart with 5 fathoms o’ rope (hawser) ‘tween them.
When told ta start they gather up the rope and by give and take on the rope try to get their opponent to let go the rope or step off the box. Much like haulin’ sail from the yardarm; ye can’t step off nor let the sail luff. Easy to make and fun anywhere.

Nest time ye decide to mosey this way we’ll set ye to one o’ our adult scavenger hunts with things to search for like frottage or a quick quaff, just fer starters.

Thanks again fer the mention and we look forward to sailin’ with ye next year.

Thank you fer the kudous on our Pyrate Treasure Hunt, we worked hard on putting the map together and coming up with all the clues to keep all the brethern bangin’ their knoggins trying to figure out where we did bury the treasure. We appreciate the honorable mention. Looking forward to dazzling you again next year. BTW, the name of the tug-o-war be Hunker Hawser. It not be a game o’ tug-o-war, more of skill, balance and give and taking of the rope to get yer opponnet off their “ship” or release the rope.
