“Why didn’t the razor clam share his toys? McNeal asked. “He spent so many years at C.”Īnother of McNeal’s jokes is better to read. “Why did it take so many years for a pirate to learn the alphabet? McNeal asked. McNeal gave a couple examples of the jokes he tells. “I tell nautical jokes,” said McNeal with his stuffed squid named “Squirt,” who was hanging onto his left shoulder. McNeal’s main purpose during the festival is to “amuse” the children. McNeal has been coming to Rusty Scupper’s Pirate Daze, off and on, for the last couple years. His name? “Foul Weather.” His land name is Tim McNeal, and he hails from Bremerton. In addition to pirates, who wandered along downtown Westport’s Westhaven Drive, there were children with skull face paint, and there was even a man with a skull mask and a squid that adorned his shoulder. “Every self-respecting pirate’s got to live on a ship,” said Schmidt with a smile. Schmidt isn’t just a pirate during Westport’s yearly festival, which was celebrating its 22nd year - 2020 was canceled because of COVID-19. “I’m just a young kid at heart (who) likes to play grown-up pirate.” He explained why he expects to come back next year. “I fell in love with it, and I expect to come here for many more years,” Schmidt said. Schmidt, from Portland, was attending his second year at Rusty Scupper’s Pirate Daze. Schmidt’s macaw, “Jazz” is 45 years old, brilliantly colored, and quite active. The black-hatted pirate with a scarlett, blue, and yellow macaw hanging from his shoulder, and a real 3-foot metal sword sheathed on his belt, stopped for photographs, and insisted on people taking “selfies” with him. Ron Schmidt, dressed in pirate garb, was a hit with children and adults alike. While pirates, like the Vassars, made for authentic, classic pirate fun, one man had a real macaw with him. “I feel like next year will be even bigger,” Mike Vassar said.
