After discovering the old plans of HMS Bounty, the idea of salvaging her couldn't let go of me.
So i decided, to do it!
Wasn't easy getting the old lady back on her feet. But together with my twin brother I made it.

My twin will now take my place on the special op team on the Ghost of Trafalgar (don't worry, @Owl_Pie2. he's a worthy replacement and won't dissapoint you).

There she is, Fellas! Moored at the port in [REDACTED] and waiting for you.
#NAFOfleet #NAFOdrone

As you kind of represent the harbor command @JoaoPio3, I hereby officially register as captain of the BONKY. Please spred the word.
Fellas and fellines who want to sail to Sevastopol with me are welcome.
As you know, tickets are available at
#NAFOfleetu24.gov.ua/news/nafo

Hooray! The BONKY already has its first passenger. And such an elegant one!
Welcome aboard, @BabsJohns0n !
With our figurehead we now have two ladies at the bow of the ship.
But don't be fooled by the sight, Babs is armed!
#nafofleet #nafodrone
@U24_gov_ua

I welcome two more passengers on the BONKY!
We now have medical support on the ship with @big_bixi.
And @rup31 can make sure there are no saboteurs on board, as it seems, there was already an incident here.
(Hope I don't smell mutiny here, dammit...)
#nafofleet #nafodrone

@big_bixi @rup31 Still so much to prepare that I completely forgot to validate the passengers' tickets.
So that everything is correct:
Thank you @BabsJohns0n

And thank you @big_bixi and @rup31

@big_bixi @rup31 Good morning Fellas!
Just in time for sunrise ☀️, I can introduce our fourth passenger: @JoyFalara, sunflower expert 🌻.
☀️ + 🌻 How fitting. Welcome on board!

I can see @big_bixi and @rup31 fixed the BONKY nametag. Thanks Fellas.
#Nafofleet #Nafodrone

What a morning. Our fifth passenger @Capone2434 is about to board with a stunt!
Wow great! We can use fellas who have courage and skill. 👍
It's great that you're joining the ride.
And we still have vacancies, fellas. Get your tickets!
#NAFOfleet #NAFOdrone

If you look closely, you can see that @Capone2434 accidentally ran over something. As it turns out, @BabsJohns0n was chasing that piece of POO-TIN before boarding the BONKY.
Well, now it's done. Perfect.
I'm just afraid we have to clean up now, it's pretty gross... 😒🤮

@JeremyDenegar, @Owl_Pie2 and famous First Lieutenant Raccoon joined us. What an honor!

Since the "Bonky" is an armed transport ship, we take care of the supply for the fellas at the Crimean beach party.

As a Bavarian fella, I naturally provided a selection of special DOPPELBONK strong beers!
The barrels still have to be loaded on board on the lower deck. But we will need more help with that.
Fellas out there! Come and support us on the BONKY.
You won’t regret it! 😉
#NAFOfleet

@FellaFranek joined us on the BONKY!
Welcome and thanks for the help.
I'm sure he will handle the DOPPELBONK barrels responsibly along with @JeremyDenegar. Am I right? 😅

Since @Owl_Pie2 doesn't like beer, we'll find an alternative somewhere else.
#NAFOfleet #NAFOdrone

@MnicaViveiros1 @Ramanuskas3 But we can provide other beverages as well! 😉

Great that @EJPointer is finally on board too.
Actually, I thought he could help us load the barrels of Vatnik tears (for those who don't like beer).
But he still seems a little... unfocused due to a rough night. 😉
Let's wait until he's back on his feet (or wheels).
#NAFOfleet

Thanks for being on board the BONKY with us @Mellowtopia!
Would be great if you could support @EJPointer with the barrels. He's not 100% fit yet. But he looks a lot better than before.
I knew it: a glass of Vatnik tears can be very refreshing.
😄
#NAFOfleet #NAFOdrone

Finally I have time to greet my special guests with a glass of DOPPELBONK beer.
@dberi21, @MnicaViveiros1 our Ticket Lady, @Kama_Kamilia in person, Ghost of Trafalgar Captain @Owl_Pie2 (with a glass of Vatnik Tears), First Lieutenant Raccoon and @Ramanuskas3.
It is my honor!

And all have valid tickets, of course.

Sorry to keep you waiting so long. The welcome drink in the captain's cabin escalated a bit...
Welcome aboard, @ChristofBrehmer!
Good to have someone who isn't drunk yet. Because it takes a clear head to check and prepare our 4-pounder cannons. You are our gunner now.
#NAFOfleet

Fellas! Look how beautiful the BONKY looks in the sunset.
A busy day is behind us. The storeroom is filled with barrels (I hope they aren't all empty yet) and the cannons are serviced.
We all deserve a cool glass of DOPPELBONK (or Vatnik Tears). Thanks for all your help!
Cheers!

Hi Santa @Mike_Ryker! What a surprise.
It's dark already and you've come a long way. Come in to the cabin.
Can I offer you a glass of Vatnik tears? Or Double bong?
- Uh, I mean DOPPELBONK. Sorry I've had a long day... 😅
#NAFOfleet #NAFOdrone

First Lieutenant Raccoon gets company from a fellow raccoon. And we're getting more medical professionals. How lucky are we! Welcome to our late guests Sniper Racoon and @BenAmuchasteg1.
May I offer a glass of Vatnik tears with a slice of your watermelon?
I think the party's on.

Before I forget or get too drunk: Tickets? - Check.

Good morning Fellas!
Captain is reporting back to duty. Somehow the stern of the #BONKY turned into a bar last night. Don't know how that could have happened...
Today will probably be our last day at [REDACTED]'s port.
So get you tickets and join us!
#NAFOfleet #NAFOdrone

Our first passenger on board today. You are very welcome on the HMS BONKY, @FrauKrieg! 🫡

As we are about to set sail, sails and rigging need to be taken care of.
You appear to be absolutely suitable for the responsible job and will hopefully receive support soon.
#NAFOfleet

@FrauKrieg As I have hoped:
The lovely @RusalkaNYC is supporting us in the BONKY.
And she climbs artfully into the ropes.
Welcome and thanks for your help, Madame!
#NAFOfleet #NAFOdrone

Welcome @PosSumGame!
Sorry for keeping you waiting, there's an awful lot to do as a captain. Especially when the passengers are fellas...
Are you looking for a job? I could use a storage room manager.
Haven't been below deck myself to see the cargo. Let's check that right now.

Fellas, meet @PosSumGame.... oh, HOLY BONKSTICK..!
@Mellowtopia, @EJPointer, @FellaFranek and @JeremyDenegar, I am impressed.

Somehow the room below deck appears to be much larger than before...
Must be the magic of HMS BONKY! 😎
#NAFOfleet #NAFOdrone

With @intelSkunk checking in, HMS Bonky becomes heavily armed.
He brings aboard one of the most powerful and feared weapons in existence.
The SUPERSTINKER 3000!
With this armament we need not fear any enemy.
(only thing I fear now is SmellaFella below deck or in my cabin)

@EJPointer @PosSumGame @Mellowtopia @FellaFranek @JeremyDenegar Maybe Daleks can just add another dimension, when they are constantly sipping Vatnik tears...? 🤔

Finally! With @s0ap0peraqueen a real sailor comes on board! Ahoy! 🫡
And fast as lightning she climbs up into the crow's nest to take a wide view of the sea...
For mascot "Krtek", the little mole, this is certainly an unusual prospect! 😀

Now we can see what else @s0ap0peraqueen carried up to the crow's nest: A gift from the captain of the famous The Stumpy Shirt.
He gives us a second powerful and fearsome secret weapon: A Scottish bagpipe!
Thanks and a triple ahoy to Captain @Lottalove23!!

#NAFOfleet

Revenge is best served - with mustard!
(And a glass of Vatnikt tears of course).
@MustardAdd has equipped us well for raccoons revenge with her donation!
Thank you so much my love! ❤️

Since the hold is already full, we need another place for the mustard.
I already have an idea.

We made it just in time before it got dark.
Beautiful how it glows in the dark, that's magic again.
Another eventful day lies behind us. But now everything is ready.
Would you like a glass of double candy in the officers' mess of the #BONKY, Fellas? Come along.

#NAFOfleet

Good morning fellas and fellines.
Today is the big day. Sun is shining and the fresh morning breeze cures every hangover.
The sails are set, the "JOLLYBONKER" hoisted, we are off.
Big thanks to all supporters! 🫡
Looking forward to our trip and arrival in Sevastopol.
#NAFOfleet

Matching the date of Christmas, we have 25 Fellas on board. 24 passengers and one captain. It's magic all over again. 🌠

@BabsJohns0n, @big_bixi, @rup31, @JoyFalara, @Capone2434, @JeremyDenegar, @Owl_Pie2, @FellaFranek, @EJPointer, @MnicaViveiros1 ⤵️

Thank you all once again! ❤️

#NAFOfleet #NAFOdrone

The BONKY had a little bumby arrival in Sevastopol.
Some of us got a bit wet.
From the inside as well as from the outside.
I checked the passenger list:
@BabsJohns0n, @big_bixi, @rup31, @JoyFalara, @Capone2434, @JeremyDenegar, @Owl_Pie2, @FellaFranek, @EJPointer...⤵️

are all well!
I hope all of you enjoyed the trip!
#NAFOfleet

It's done, Fellas! #NAFOdrone is secured. ❤️‍🔥
Raccoon's revenge will come. And it will be sweet (or rather served with sweet mustard, as the crew of the BONKY knows).
Thank you for all your support! 🫡
