Pyrates 101 be an informal Q&A talk about the Golden Age of Piracy from the Buccaneer Age through Bartholomew Roberts, the last great Pyrate of the Golden Age. We'll also set the record straight about Tampa Bay's most famous Pirate, Jose Gaspar. This be for kids and adults from middle school age and up, as Pyrate History tends to bore younger lads and lasses. These be sad times whenst lubbers of all ages have very little Pyrate knowledge. Pyrates 101 be for you. Be ye warned, there will be some weapons instructing and interactive demonstrating using a BOB dummy. Pyrates 101 canst be done indoors or outdoors, weather permitting.
NOTE: Pyrates 101 involves real and replica weapons. Not available to schools, non-permissive environments and such. Without weapons, it be a bit boring Yarrr!

I not be Captain John Shark because it be a cool or scary name, I LOVE Sharks and I be an avid Shark Conservationist. For over a decade I have paddleboarded with Bull Sharks all over Tampa Bay and currently I SWIM with Bull Sharks in Jupiter every chance I get.

I not be Captain John Shark because it be a cool or scary name, I LOVE Sharks and I be an avid Shark Conservationist. For over a decade I have paddleboarded with Bull Sharks all over Tampa Bay and currently I SWIM with Bull Sharks in Jupiter every chance I get. Still have all my fingers and toes. Now, I be no schooled scientist or Shark Professional so Sharks 101 consists of a general overview of Sharks native to Tampa Bay, Shark Conservation Awareness, Shark Conservation Endeavors I support and my personal observations of Bull Sharks as an amateur Shark Naturalist. To have a gander at me Bull Shark Diving videos, see my personal TikTok and YouTube accounts. Links at bottom of page.

DISCLAIMER - BY SHARK'S BITE, THARRR BE NO BALLOON ANIMALS, JUGGLING, MAGIC ACTS, CLOWNS OR SINGALONGS AND SUCH IN THE PYRATE OPERATIONS I RUN. MY BUCCANEERS LEARN REAL PYRATE SKILLS LIKE PISTOL AND SWORD WORK, THROWING GRENADOES, TAKING SANTA'S ELVES HOSTAGE AT CHRISTMASTIME, DIGGING UP TREASURE WITH THEIR BARE HANDS AND CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW RUNNING THROUGH HEADHUNTER TERRITORY. CAPTAIN JOHN SHARK'S PYRATE OPERATIONS ARRR NOT FOR FAINT-OF-HEART LILLY-LIVERED LUBBERS.
"Born and raised in the Buccaneer Port of Tampa Bay, I developed a love of Sharks, Sea and all things Pyrate at an early age. Me ventures have taken me from Tampa Bay to the Voodoo Haunted Shores of Haiti to the Treasure Laden Islands of the Florida Keys to the High-Toned-and-Fancy-To-Do Shoals of Carolina and back. In the beginnings of my Buccaneering Career, my ship was wrecked in a storm and as I sank down to Davy Jones, a massive female White Shark came swimming up from the depths. I thought sure she be the angel of death come for me, but she grabbed me by my baldric and swam me back to the shores of me beloved Tampa Bay. Now I roam the Seas Pillaging, Plundering and Saving Sharks! Hence me motto, Raise the Black - Save Sharks - Repeat!"
