Ahoy there shipmaties

Ahoy there Capt Aldone of the HMS Antonino - this was our last salutation for the finest of the RN vessels on the high seas of the Germanic Sea (modern North Sea) and the Scottish Sea (North to the Orkneys) as he pulled across our bows and headed down to the flat seas of the Bermuda zone and the Caymans. A brave stocky lad when he joined us on the waves many years ago, and footloose and fancy free in those happy days. Pursuing pirates in the Caymans has been his chief joy this last couple of years. Those pirates on the Black Pearl and their black lady Queen Bess of the MV Venerabile have been at it again, firing their cannons at innocent young lassies off Jackson Heights.
