Geocache Description:


A long and hard winter behind them, Captain Peg Leg Davey and his first mate Red Roxy are again ready to take their crew of geopirates back into the treasure laden waters of the geo –sea. Alas, some damage was done to their mainmast while chipping off all of the ice and snow. Before the wily geopirates can embark on more adventures, they must put into port and repair and refit their vessel.

Unlike the dastardly Navy pirate hunters, a geopirate is permitted to make any modifications they like to their ship. A pirate, after all, answers to no one! So, Captain Peg Leg Davey decides to take his ship to the quiet haven of Lisbon for repairs. Once a rough and tumble merchant town, Lisbon is far from the most frequented trade routes and its population had dwindled over the years. Thus, it is the perfect place for a pirate to refit without arousing suspicion.

The Two Geopirates made minor repairs, added a few new ships guns, and, most importantly, replaced their damaged mainmast. While doing so, Captain Peg Leg Davey realized that their geo-vessel was carrying a lot of unnecessary swag. After all, if you can’t eat it, shoot it, or sell it you might as well throw it overboard! But, Red Roxy had a better idea. Why not leave some of their extra swag hidden in Lisbon so that other geopirates in need might benefit from their success.

This treasure cache beplaced at the very spot where the Two Geopirates found their new mainmast! ‘Tis not an overly large cache, but big enough to stash small swag and traveling doubloons! There be a bit of a widening of the waters in which ye can tie up your own geo-vessels, but don’t look for a large protected harbor. Hang on to the mini pirates and make sure some hearty sailor remembers a writing instrument. Do make sure to refit your ship during the daylight hours, as not to disturb the rest of Lisbon’s early inhabitants. The lucky first geopirate to discover this stash won’t have to refit at all, for their prize be a fully functional geopirate ship! Now, hoist the sails and, as always, enjoy the hunt!
