I was gifted this by a family friend as a kid. It was super fun. My brothers had this and a castle. Now the parts are mixed in across 2 buckets of Lego that I’ve rescued from my parent’s storage room last year and kept for my kids.the cycle continues.

I hate keeping sets together.
All my sets get built, enjoyed, then completely disassembled and mixed into a big bin for all the fun of making our own creations.
I keep the build manuals. So I can rebuild them again if I ever wanted to. But the fun is in the building, not the having of completed sets.

It truly did not float.

Every kid who owned this set tried to take it into the bathtub and realized immediately that it did not float 😅

But it was mesmerizing seeing the sub par build start leaking and slowly fill with water and you wondered how much it would take before sinking to the bottom
Funny how some of our best memories in life come from inside a bathtub

OMG I had forgotten I tried to do that. I remember it vividly now, thanks for that.

That one is easy to build as long as you don’t mind shelling out $60 for sails and a yellow parrot. Every other brick in there is super cheap.

Is there a way to buy the pieces on bricklink without individually adding each piece to a cart? It feels like there should be a button for that, but I can’t figure it out.

I think that was the stuck up English navy one, not the pirate cool one.
