Do your kids have that sense of adventure but your yard and budget aren't too keen on the plundering?  Perhaps they're ready to take on the whole Atlantic but you're currently trapped in the Chesapeake Bay. The answer is the 7x16 Crippling Clipper pirate Ship playhouse.  All trade ships beware!

One of the smaller outdoor pirate vessels hosted on this website, this two story design still comes with a lot of character that'll give any innocent cargo ship a scare.  Features 100 square feet of total play space, a 2nd story over the main deck and even a crow's nest to see if enemy sips are in sight.  If you don't have the space, this little playhouse is perfect for the plundering!
