Ahoy - 25 mayo 13

In the crow's nest the sun is a terrible woe - scorches the shirt of your back me hearties. Shivver me timbers would be better. And look there is the old warboat tug the SS Aurora still pulling out and sailing the 7 seas with captain Christopher on board and his petty officers and largely african crew. A bit of a slave trade merchantman that one it has to be said, but hearken, tis the old flag of Republican France and the colours of Napoleon fluttering there from the stern and not the Royal Enseign. Behind is her sister ship, the SS Rosie-crucia and two escort corvettes from the French navy, the SS Angel and the SS Revolution, always with a full compliment of French republican marines. Quite a little flotilla this one. Still we might give them a run for their money and deploy the HMS Archangel - she has a full complement of cannonry - with her escort man of war the HMS Osterreich.
