Jack Oysterpirate (Explored 11 May 2023)
Jack Oysterpirate is a legendary swashbuckling adventurer that has terrorized creatures in Kachemak Bay for years. I was fortunate to glimpse this creature near Gull Island during the recent Shorebird Festival at Homer. We were fortunate he let our boat pass without boarding us and holding us for ransom. I still shiver at the thought of what could have happened. The origin story goes that he used to be normal until he lost his leg to a fishing accident. Unable to acquire a medical prosthetic, he fashioned a leg from a doll house banister, and acquired a swagger that alienated his friends and family. He struck out on his own to acquire the trappings of success, in this case the power of persuasion. Oft times at the point of his sword "Pinprick" he would force creatures to comply with his wants.
So, if you come to Alaska and go out on Kackemak Bay, you have been warned!
