??? This article has not yet received a rating on the assessment scale.

This article doesn't make any sense. There are incomplete sentences... and what, pray tell, is a "rocket shop?" It definitely needs to be reworked. Maybe give it stub status?

Thanks to Masq. Royalist for removing some wierdness ("rocket shop"). I have removed more ("fluff from his brother's mouth"?) and generally bulked up and clarified, as well as paring down the waffle.

[edit] Aquines?

Is this the same John Hawkins the Pirate that was known in the Canary Islands as Aquines[1]? --Asteriontalk 20:25, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
