Original Toronto Star caption: Modern-day buccaneer: Dave May discovered some years ago that living on a boat is more fun and less expensive; but he decided he wanted something unusual. He's building himself a 2/3-scale replica of a American privateer; the Rattlesnake. The original was captured by the British in 1781.
