About the Event
Ahoy there! You are invited to board the Sailorette and join the plentiful crew, 'The Old Time Sailors', for an afternoon of foot-stomping, dancing and singing!
You will be sailing back to the 19th century for an immersive experience of traditional seafaring music performed in a way you have never seen before. The Motley Crew and their plethora of traditional and eclectic instruments will take you back to the time of clashing tankards, and drunken debauchery.
Sing and dance along like a drunken sailor as the band perform centuries old folk and shanty songs.
Fancy dress is encouraged, so pull out your best seafaring garments me hearties and join the festivities!
They'll be joined by the award-winning Blackwater Pirates, your local group of scallywags who plunder for charity. Sailing under the guidance of Commodore Clyde Jackdaw.
This is a free event but usual pier admission prices apply.
