The meaning

A captain thinks ahead, reads the weather and takes responsibility for the crew. A pirate breaks the rules that don't make sense and moves fast. The front asks you to be both: think carefully, then act boldly. The back is the other half of the deal: stay the course and keep the flag.

On good days and hard days

• On good days, it keeps your bold spirit alive and your plans one step ahead.
• On hard days, when the water gets rough, it reminds you to think like a captain, act like a pirate, stay the course and keep the flag.

Why a key tag

It is a conversation starter on any set of keys, and the motto is a good one to read on the way to work. It carries the same artwork as the Pirate Coin: a pirate skull with an eyepatch and tricorn hat over crossed blades on the front, and a ship's wheel wrapped in kraken tentacles, with a compass, a treasure chest and a ship under sail, on the back.

Give it

It is a fun gift for a founder, a sales team, a sailor or anyone who loves the sea. One customer called the matching coin a perfect client giveaway, and the key tag works the same way.

Specs

• Diameter: 1.54 in (39 mm)
• Thickness: 2.7 mm
• Weight: about 1 oz (28 g)
• Material: brass alloy, Antique Bronze finish

Questions

What does “think like a captain, act like a pirate” mean?
Plan with responsibility, then act with boldness. It is a motto for leaders who don't want to play it safe.

Is it a good gift for someone who loves the sea?
Yes. The ship's wheel, compass and kraken make it a favorite with sailors and sea lovers.

Is it the same design as the Pirate Coin?
Yes, the artwork is the same on both sides. The key tag simply adds a loop so it can hang from your keys.

Will my key tag look exactly like the photos?
Very close, but never identical. Each key tag is antiqued with a special patina that settles differently every time, so small variations in color and shading from the photos are normal. They are what make yours one of a kind.

Care: keep it dry and wipe it with a soft cloth. No polishing needed; the aged finish is part of the look.
