"15 men on a dead man's chest, yo ho ho and a bottle o' rum! Drink and the devil had done for the rest, yo ho ho and a bottle o' rum!"

The true pirate's treasure, this MOC is a brilliant one indeed. A life sized dose of grog with great details like a jolly roger on the front, the true pirate in you won't be able to resist this one!

Sometimes in an AFOL community, we forget who the LEGO Group's main target is. So it's nice to be reminded with such a nice MOC from a younger LEGO enthusiast.

Ward, the nephew of Capt. Kirk's girlfriend, has created this raft entitled "Shipwrecked Pirates". At the age of 8, this pirate fan has a bright future ahead of him. After all, he is in good company!
Marvel at the talents of this junior fan of LEGO and
his Shipwrecked Pirates in the Classic-Pirates.com forum.

It was long believed that pirates buried their treasure under the sand. However, this theory was later squashed with the discovery of this fine MOC.

Be sure to see the hidden cave where the treasure is stowed away. And there's only one way to do that... Head to the pirate forum to discuss Pirate's Treasure by CrimsonWolf!

Oh a great day it was,
when in came the boss,
and said "Matey prepare to set sail".
So we climbed aboard ship,
for quite a long trip,
and expected delay without fail.
But when Fred was on watch,
we were all in the scotch,
we didn't see it coming.
Black walls of clouds,
high above the shrouds,
we didn't find it that funny.
We fought off the gale,
not leaving a trail,
of where we had gone and been.
Sadly it was in vain,
it's an incredible pain,
our ship will never again be seen.
So now here we lay,
hoping and praying,
that someone will find us here.
We expect there is land:
a tree but no sand,
but no-one has yet come near.

Often for LEGO ships, the large pre-fabricated hull parts are used, producing good results, but when something is made with a custom hull, it is something special. In this great MOC, DARKspawn has used many clever techniques to give the hull that wooden look, as well as an incredible attention to detail.

Swing by the pirate forum and check The Black Meg out properly.
