Bootleggers

Bootleggers is a crew on the Cerulean Ocean. It was founded on September 18, 2006 and is the core crew of the flag Anchor Management.

History
Possibly the friendliest crew in the flag compared to their flag mates. This diverse bunch of pirates are in it for the adventure and fun they can have while sailing the Midnight Ocean. Don't let their easy going facade fool you. This crew has a determination to rival the top crews in the whole ocean.

The Bootleggers had a modest start. A hand full of pirates separated form their old crew to form their own for the express purpose of pillaging for long hours, creating activities, and running their long list of stalls. In their earlier months, they jumped around from flag to flag until they settled with Moonlighting. During their four months with the flag, they continued to grow significantly by merging three other crews into their group. When their flag finally decided to disband, the Captain and Senior Officers banded together to make the Anchor Management Flag.

Today the crew continues to thrive as does their flag. They are one of the most organized crew and flag in the Midnight Ocean and have no plans on stopping anytime soon.
