Tortuga
And of course once you have got your ship, where you chose to sail in it is very important. I recommend Tortuga. It is indeed a sad life that has never breathed deep the sweet proliferous bouquet that is Tortuga , savvy? Not one hundred percent sure what that means, but basically, you are but half a man who has not been to Tortuga. Now there are several reasons why I like Tortuga so much.
1. Everyone is friendly. It is such a happy, giving atmosphere that makes no man feel unwanted.
2. You don't need a lot of money to enjoy Tortuga, the booze is cheap, the girls are cheap, and a bed for the night is free. I mean you can kip down anywhere you fancy, (preferably with someone else, not to put too fine a point on it) but failing that, the ground isn't that hard when you get used to it. Or the barns where the pigs are kept, though Gibbs usually sleeps in there.
3. It's easy to get too, and although you'll probably get robbed a couple of hundred times, you'll leave, nine times out of ten, richer then when you first arrived.
4. Word of warning though, Tortuga is not for the light of heart, if you dare to venture to my beloved town, then you must have two things. The first a level head; Tortuga is a place where people from all walks of life live (and when I say all walks of life, I mean ALL ). The second is acceptance. I mean you can either accept that the bloke next to you, is a serial killer, escaped from prison, and let him buy you a drink while picking your pocket, or you can't. (in which case he'll probably kill you during the night!).
Once leaving the safety of your ship, you step out on to the gold filled ground of Tortuga. For there is lot's of money to be made here. If you know where to find it. For instance you can sell your services to someone, i.e. hit man, (kill someone), or general heavy (sort someone out). You can borrow loads from the money lenders (though I must warn you this could prove bad for your health). Become a money lender yourself, but this presents two problems. Problem the first, you would have to have money to start with, and problem the second people tend to 'bump off' their lone- sharks when they can't afford the bill.
Another way off making money, is just to stick your hand into someone's pocket and take whatever you find. This too carries a warning, don't steal from anyone bigger then you, or someone carrying a gun. Try not to get caught, and then run like hell.
Another interesting fact about Tortuga, there is at least one pub for every two houses. So let yourself go and bask in the glory of drunkeness, people look more attractive when your drunk.
Now here's a bit of useful information to get you through your stay in Tortuga.
1. There are no laws in Tortuga, (and if they're were I doubt people would pay much attention to them).
2. Drinking is not a privilege, it's not a right, it's a. . . well it's something you've got to do! *can't think of the word*. I would seriously recommend 'The Smoking Dragon', lovely little pub beside the docks. Very cheap, good quality rum, and a bit of the barmaid if your lucky.
3. Every other women you see is a prostitute.
4. Every other man you see is in fact a women. (I'm not sure a 100% sure about this one!!)
5. Don't ask questions, you might not like the answers.
And now some recommendations as to where to sleep for the night, if you fail to find a nice bit o' ground: -
1. Like in said before, 'The Smoking Dragon' is a cheap place to stay, with some good, and in rich supply *cough* horizontal refreshment.
2. Another good place is The Drunken Unico'n (it's supposed to be Unicorn, but some one nicked the 'r') again, cheap, hospitable, warm, and *ahem* entertaining.
3. But now to my personal favourite (why it is so, I shall explain in a minute) is The Dancing Lamppost, now one of the main reasons for this is you can absolutely pissed out of your head for five shillings. And for ten you can buy the lady of the house for one night. You'll love Scarlet, she's a smashing, slapping woman. *wink wink*
WHAT WE HAVE LEARNT TODAY: -
TORTUGA = GOOD
So now you've got your dear ol' ship (hopefully not too old) and you've got your enchanting place (Tortuga) to sail to. What you need next is a loyal crew. So the next part of my guide, helps you to pick the best and turn away the rest. Savvy?
