"Caribbean Sailing Adventure. Treasure-diving cooperative seeks volunteers to crew a sailing ship to the Caribbean to search for sunken treasure. No experience necessary." Brian Crawford, a 23-year-old hippie in San Diego, couldn't resist answering this mysterious ad, and found himself in another world. He became a member of the Summerland Pirates, a strange crew of unforgettable characters and misfits, living outside the law and conventions, with a dream of sailing an antique sailing ship to the Caribbean to search for Spanish treasure. With diving and cinema equipment, military vehicles, boats, and weapons, they drove across the continent to Nova Scotia, where they bought an old fishing schooner and set out into the winter North Atlantic. Buffeted by storms and the authorities of two countries, they worked their way down the east coast to Virginia, where a hurricane and near sinking ended Crawford's adventures, and nearly his life

Brian Crawford is a computer programmer living in Marin County, California, with his wife and son. In addition to several collections of short fiction and a series of memoirs about his hippie days, he has written Toki, a historical novel about the South Pacific kingdom of Tonga. He has also reprinted a number of out-of-print books about Pacific exploration. His fiction has been published in the print magazines Bust-Out Stories and Paradox Historical Fiction, and the online journals Slow Trains, e-clips, Clean Sheets, Sedona's Attic, and Oysters and Chocolate, where his story The Heat won a Grand Prize. His short-short story Heart to Heart won Honorable Mention in the Whim's Place 2006 Flash Fiction contest, and The Find won Second Prize
