The Pirate Ship Bridlington

The Pirate Ship Bridlington The standard 10 minutes rides are on offer from 1st april through till 31st October everyday, and Weekends all year round (weather dependent).

The Pirate Ship was built on the High Green in Bridlington old town next to the Priory church in 1979. It was built single handed by a local boat builder called Paul Mckie. It was originally designed to be an angling and commercial fishing boat and was named "Sportsman." It is constructed of oak frames with larch planking which was harvested in the Hemsley area of North Yorkshire. The decking is m

ade of iroko wood imported from South America. Carvel built the frames are erected before the planking, the planks are butted up to each other and are secured with iron spikes, then seams and joints are caulked to be made water tight. This method is usually used on larger vessels and is of a heavier construction.

After several enquiries about if or when we are operating.
We are hoping to start at the next unlock stage ( early June) with the revelant distancing restrictions and crew with masks.
If there is an unfortunate significant backwards step with the virus, this date will be put back.
Hope to see you soon and keep smiling πŸ‘
