You probably can, I think Gabe Newell has done that at least once.

...Eh? I think Gabe once said in an interview that he was taking Valve employees along for a Hawaiian vacation, but I never heard of a pirate ship.

What about that image of Gabe in a pirate get-up with two pirate chicks hanging off his arms with a ship behind him?

EDIT: Here it is.

...Is that a photoshop?

Also, they're not so much "hanging off his arms" as "looking as if they're about to stab him."

On-topic, I'm sure you can rent a fully-rigged sailing ship if you have the money. You can get Lady Gaga to play at your birthday party if you have the money; it's just that "the money" might be a lot more than most people can afford.
