What is a Letter of Marque? |
||
In days long gone, when Baltimore was a brawling seaport dedicated to twisting the British Lion's Tail during the War of 1812, one of the most prized documents to be held by a ship owner was a Letter of Marque, which authorized the ship to legally raid British commerce. This is why we call our tickets the Letter of Marque; they are a modern-day replication of the license giving Privateers the right to plunder enemy ships for profit. Our Letters of Marque are your license to "raid" the merchants of Baltimore for your profit. The Letters of Marque are available only to adult Water Taxi ticket-holders and, if used, can more than cover the cost of the ticket. Good Hunting! |
