Craft. It’s a word that gets tossed around a lot. Finding the right pieces, selecting each ingredient and then combining them with no shortcuts. It is the difference between making a pot of coffee and crafting the perfect cup.

That is what we do. We find the best ingredients and we take the time to make things right. It is a simple philosophy. Make the things you like, look for what makes you happy, then share it. It is just like in geocaching, if you hide the kinds of caches you enjoy finding, if you take the time to craft something special, you will find an audience.

At Captain Rodney’s we’ve been Geocaching nearly as long as we’ve been making our all-natural sauces, jellies and jams. We are passionate about sharing our products and our adventures and we want to be a part of yours. To share your adventure with us, snap a photo and post it on Facebook or Twitter with the hashtag #CachingWithCaptainRodneys #contest. We will pick the 25 pictures that best capture the spirit of adventure and exploration for a Captain Rodney’s Prize Pack! Learn more about the geocaching promotion here.

Current Goal

The goal of "Ride Captain Ride" is simply to "sail" around the world, visiting as many geocaches & countries as possible.  :-)

(Be sure to hide the tracking code when taking any pics).

​(Also, please don't "collect" this trackable, as that will take it out of circulation and spoil the fun.  PLEASE do not take this travel bug unless you'll faithfully log it and take it to another cache.  I can't tell you how many trackables I've released which have gone missing or stagnant, often after just being in one cache.  Please respect the purpose of travel bugs / trackables.  Thank you).

About This Item

Ride Captain Ride

I received this cool trackable tag at the "ME- A Pirate's Life For Us!​" event (GC759GJ) today (July 25, 2017) at Deering Oaks Park in Portland, Maine, USA as a part of the "Captain Rodney’s Great American Treasure Hunt" and trackable-tags giveaway.

Continuing my theme of naming most of my trackables after songs, "Ride Captain Ride" is a 1970 song by the band Blues Image, being their only Top 40 hit, reaching #4 in both the U.S. and Canada.  The song has been covered by the bands Blood, Sweat & Tears as well as Phish, and has been featured in several television episodes.

I figured this key chain would make a nice attachment for the tag, considering the name I'd given it.  :-)  (I wanted to keep the word "Captain" in the name in honor of Captain Rodney's!)
