cruisegirl29 Posted February 8, 2010 #2 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Hi, We if this the the pirate ship "Jolly Roger" I can tell you that I did this a few years ago. While it was fun it was also a party time. I had too much rum punch as it was strong. It gets a little wild.... We took it to I think the area by the Boatyard beach. Swam, partied & then had the option of going to the beach or back to the ship. I went back to the ship & passed out. :( Lesson learned "don't even drink one cup of rum punch on the Jolly Roger". It's deadly... LOL Just be warned!! LOL.... Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmitchell82 Posted February 8, 2010 #3 Share Posted February 8, 2010 We did something similar through Princess. If it is the same excursion, it is basically a 3 story party barge. The only thing pirate about it was the crew was dressed as pirates. We were suppose to go snorkeling near the Boatyard and were suppose to transfer to a smaller boat to get is close to shore, but due to the high seas, we were not able to do that. They also did not have enough snorkel gear for everyone as well. If I had to do it again, I would have done another excursion. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aplmac Posted February 8, 2010 #4 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Well.. if this the the pirate ship "Jolly Roger" I can tell you that I did this a few years ago. While it was fun it was also a party time. I had too much rum punch as it was strong. It gets a little wild.... We took it to I think the area by the Boatyard beach. Swam, partied & then had the option of going to the beach or back to the ship. I went back to the ship & passed out. :( Lesson learned "don't even drink one cup of rum punch on the Jolly Roger". It's deadly... LOL Just be warned!! LOL.... Back in a past life (1976 to be precise) I used to work on the Jolly Roger for awhileand can tell a few stories ..never mind! Early in the morning, before we left harbour the barrels that used to hold the rum punch were uncorked at the top and into the barrel was poured equal portions of Barbados Rum -and Fruit Punch. Scientific analysis: Jolly Roger Rum Punch is precisely 50% RUM, OK? So when the Capt. announces on the public address system that the bar is open and that you should first pack your glass with ice and then fill in the cracks between with Rum Punch -he's not kidding you! Why? You have to ask why? :D Because after the second one (!!) you'll be very glad for the dilution factor, as the ice melts as you drink the stuff. Local Rum Punch can be 'deadly' -go easy on it -you've been warned (again and again!) :D . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
