QuarterMaster Mahoney
Mahoney's paternal grandfather was a Quartermaster in the Coast Guard. He sailed for twenty years from the deck of a massive three-masted ship. Mahoney now humbly answers as "Quartermaster," for the Pirates of the Sky Islands.
Siren Sarah
Siren Sarah sailed into Bisbee in 2021. She dropped anchor, planning for a short bout of shore leave to restock her stores, but fell in love with this weird and wonderful town and decided to make Bisbee her home port. She joined with the Pirates of the Sky Islands in 2022 and loves working with the crew to present the annual Bisbee Pirate Weekend!
Mermaid Elle
Mermaid Elle sailed into Bisbee’s harbor 4 years ago, and has been right at home in the sky islands ever since. Refinishing furniture and working as a textile artist by day, she is returning to the crew of Pirate Weekend for the third year.
Pirate Ambrose
Pirate Ambrose is an old salt and a nomad at heart, despite being currently landlocked. She makes annual migrations to sail, swim, and paddle around the world's seas. From working on the decks of boats in the Bering Sea to sailing the waters of the Caribbean, Marmara, and Black Seas, she feels right at home navigating the waves with the stellar crew of the Pirates of the Sky Islands.
Mermaid Kat La Mer
Call her Kat La Motte by land, and Mermaid Kat La Mer by sea! Desert-raised, but with saltwater in her soul (and probably her coffee)... she works in her seaweed garden, chats with lizards, and has a soft spot for strays. Bisbee may be landlocked, but she can help you find the best spots for a swim.
Boatswain Hunter
Boatswain Hunter wears many hats and has maintained many ships. She's been a crewmate of Pirates of the High Desert when she was a wee lass under the command of Captain Hunter. Since Captain Hunter has hung up her hat and sail, Boatswain Hunter has climbed aboard the new crew of Pirates of the Sky Island to repair any leaks in the digital flagship you view today.
