Compact piracy may not make much sense outside of playset concepts, but that's the best way to describe our Crimson Raider Pirate Ship plan. This outdoor DIY playset is one of our smaller pirate ship offerings, but still is plenty crafty in it's assembly of accessories and excitement.

Being the little brother to our Edward Thatch pirate ship, this design still offers two levels, with the lower level providing a great hiding place and the upper level reaching 5' in height to allow for many common residential playground add-ons. If you're looking for a modest but cool backyard project, the Crimson Raider will get you to where you need to be.
