As I read I am beginning to see a little more about things that I used to take for granted. Like pirates....it's interesting to think that probably famous pirates like Captain William Kidd were probably Masons, or perhaps even members of the Knights Templar on some level. As you delve into the esoteric mysteries and the symbolism that is involved in Masonry, you start to see things. Like how much pirate symbolism seems to be tied to Masonic symbolism, the most obvious being the skull and crossbones flag that became synonomous with piracy.
We must remember, the Knight's Templars were fearsome warriors and apparently skilled sailors, two attributes that are necessary if you want a career in piracy. Also, in many cases, Kidd's among them, the pirates began as pirateers, which are essentially pirates sanctioned by the state or some country or government. It was only when the pirateers grew too wealthy or too powerful that they became known as pirates. Oddly enough, that is similar to the story of the Knights Templar, who were at first sanctioned by the church and state, only to become outlaws after they had become too powerful....I suppose at that point, they too became "pirates"
So if the pirates, or at least some pirates, were privateers in the beginning, and somehow stumbled on, or knew about the story of the Templars, perhaps because of their Masonic affiliations, it is possible they knew something about the Templar Treasure. I am thinking in particular about the aforesaid Captain Kidd, who legend and pirate lore implies had ties to Oak Island and has certainly been linked to the purported buried treasure.
Perhaps Kidd didn't bury treasure on Oak Island, perhaps he recovered it, or tried to recover it. That would explain the workings at the Oak Island Money Pit that it appears were made in the 1700's as opposed to the 1300's when the Templars, in particular Henry Sinclair, would have been in the area of Nova Scotia.
If Kidd did know about the treasure, or had his suspicions, his work as a privateer may have taken a back seat to his hunt for the Templar Treasure, or the Holy Grail. Perhaps he found it, or perhaps not, but whatever, his search for the treasure may have brought him into disfavor with his country, who renounced him as a pirate. Or maybe he became a pirate too, using his ill-gotten gains to further his search for the Grail, we may never know.
Whatever the case, it is clear that Captain Kidd began as a rightous man and ended a criminal, which to me, parallels the story of the Templars....
Let's think about that for awhile....

I have been doing researches on Oak Island for decades and I came to some conclusions. H. Sinclair has nothing to do with Oak Island, he did not even showed up in Canada though the Zeno brothers did. He may be called at most a proto templars, since the Order of the Templars did not exist anymore in his days. The work on Oak Island is Templars work whatever people might say. O'Connor theory is that it is the treasure ransacked from Cuba, completly wrong. I have investigated this avenue and that is impossible. Templars yes, and I have plenty of evidences to prove it, I will show the truth in a forthcoming book.

Thanks Paul, I appreciate your comment. I agree that the work at Oak Island is related to the Templars, although I am not sure how you can be sure that Henry Sinclair was not in Nova Scotia. I think he may have been here, although perhaps after the Templars had already created the Oak Island site. I look forward to your upcoming book, don't forget to let us know when it is published.
Ok Rob
A friend and I have written an extensive document showing that Henry Sinclair never swowed up in North America, at most he travelled to Greenland. Even Niven Sinclair admitted that there are only circonstancials eveidences that Sinclair came to America. Niven sent me documents that shows that Sinclair and the Zeno's were relatives. However reading the narratives closely, it seems the Zeno's never new the place neither neither knew the ruler were they wreck their ship. I also get my hand on a French document published more than a century ago where the author make a thourough study of the so-called Sinclair trip to America. In that document he concluded that an other guy came to America with the Zeno's.
As for the Templars they travelled extensively in both North and South America, and build a city south of what is now Mexico city, which is named Lake Chalco. They were known by the natives under the name of Templacates, in Nahualt it mean MEN OF THE TEMPLE.
have a nice one Rob.
