We are currently reprinting this classic story of the Old Bahamas, and we've added some fantastic things to the new printing. It now includes maps, a family tree, and a time-line, which should make the reading experience much more pleasurable. Chris Nelson, our Creative Director, has also redesigned the cover! We promise you'll love it. Played by Captain Cook on his voyages, this game helped to entertain the Captain, his officers and crew during the long voyages. And who can resist the name? Cased in a beautiful wooden box. We can personalize this gift by placing a brass plaque on the wooden case for you. A sea-based version of Trivial Pursuit, this is the first board game that combines the strategy of a sailing race with the popular concept of a trivia game. Questions about seamanship, charts, lore, legend and more, in varying levels of difficulty, challenge even the saltiest of mariners. This was a favorite at my old marina in North Miami Beach, and it goes well with rum. You have to admit that these are just plain nice to look at! They're made in the U.S.A. of fine silk, and come in various patterns, including tug boats decked out for the holidays and candy cane lighthouses. If you are someone you know is wondering what to wear for that big holiday party, this is the perfect thing. This beautiful navy blue log book can be personalized to include the name of the vessel and he captain. When you give this as a gift, it tells the recipient that you truly care and that you want to ensure their safety at sea, because you know that a responsible mariner always keeps a log! The Astra IIIB has somewhat revolutionized celestial navigation. Never before has such a high quality, accurate metal sextant been available at such a low price. Over 10,000 sextants of this model have been sold in the US alone in the past 13 years. The Astra IIIB is made from lightweight aluminum alloy which resists corrosion. It is electrically lighted by LED on the arc and drum by two standard size AA batteries (not included) and its low price, excellent optics makes it the perfect selection for beginners and professionals. Tell your beloved mariner that you don't want him or her to get lost at sea, and prove it with this incredible gift! One piece forged brass cases enclose fine imported quartz or mechanical movements, with faces of swirled and painted aluminum, lacquered for protection. The dial of this magnificent clock is 4.5 inches across, and this piece speaks to beauty and craftsmanship like no other. Nothing Says I Love You like an Orion Ship's Wheel Clock! The Orion Ship's Wheel Clock includes the added elegance of a solid brass traditional helm wheel mounted around the case. This elegant clock has a lacquered solid brass case. It is AA operated with precision German quartz movement with bell silencer and a ship's 8 bell cycle ringing every half hour. Complete instructions, mounting hardware, fresh battery and a limited lifetime warranty are included. The dial is 3-1/4 inches. For more ideas, call to receive our new gift catalog! |
