Re: Blackbeard's anchor recovered
I'm guessing he would have said size matters! 2200 pounds!

Re: Blackbeard's Anchor Recovered
Really the secret to successful cruising is lots of swabbies to haul your 2200 pound anchor. You feed them hard tack and salt cod, keep them a little tipsy on cheap rum and dreams of maidens and riches over the horizon and when they get restless shove them over board. A quick press gang and your on your way again.
