Buccaneers/Pirate Activity Kit

The first half of the 1800's saw the height of maritime activities. Sailors aboard these mighty vessels had to sustain long hours and rigorous manual labor. The most vital task was the knowledge of how to secure various types of knots. A poorly tied knot could threaten the safety of everyone aboard the ship. Reliving those colorful years is what's packed inside every Buccaneers/Pirate Activity Kit.
