For a brief stint today, Captain Morgan himself joined the Manly Fast Ferry crew on the Circular Quay to Manly route.

Commuters were treated to a number of Captain Morgan cocktails, while Captain Morgan himself was subject to a crash course in modern shipping from the captain and co-owner of the ferry.

Captain Morgan the brand is named after the 17th century Welsh privateer of the Caribbean, Sir Henry Morgan. Morgan aided in the establishment of Jamaica as a strong English colony and is considered to be one of the greatest privateers ever. It is only fitting that the event take place on the waters.

The promotion is part of the brand’s search for an Australian Captain to join the crew, and there was no better place to start than one of the country’s most famous ships.

The search for the Australian Captain is an official process and not open to the general public.
