Introducing The World's Greatest Pirate Treasure Map

Growing up I loved the stories of Robinson Crusoe and Treasure Island. Pirates and treasure maps have an appeal that spans generations but examples found on the internet are sadly lacking in quality. We now however have available the astounding map of the notorious pirate, Captain Christopher Smite.

Discovered several years ago in Cuba by Eduardo Felpudo, the logbook of Capt'n Smite contained not only the detailed drawings of his secret island buried treasure map but also a series of cryptic clues indicating the route to be followed to his pirate treasure. Ownership of the logbook proved disaster and the new owner was brutally murdered by those wishing to own the manuscripts. They were unsuccessful in their attempts to steal them and Eduardo's widow passed them to Lost Pirate Gold with the wish that they be published for all to see.

The clues left by the pirate captain seem simple enough to start but soon become more complicated. They show that their author was a man far ahead of his time in his knowledge and obviously not just a bloodthirsty swashbuckler but a man capable of making a treasure hunt that remains unsolved to this day.

If you think you are up to it, have a look at the pirate captain's logbook and see if you can decipher the clues to his treasure map trail but put your thinking cap on. You'll need it!

The Pirate Captain's Logbook

Captain's Log

Every captain keeps a ship's logbook but most just contain tedious information of little interest but no so Capt'n Smite's. Packed full of treasure hunting clues and drawings detailing the route he walked to hide his three chests of pirate booty.

Captain's Log

The blood stained pages of the logbook describe how he went ashore with 15 new men - not his regular crew - to burden the treasure chests. By the time he returned aboard his ship all were dead, but not before the pirate Captain was wounded himself.

The Pirate's Treasure Map

After several centuries the astounding treasure map has been published on-line.

Captain's Log

Thousands of pages of sketches like the one above, hand drawn by the pirate captain himself in his secret log. There's never been such a treasure map with such detail as Capt'n Smite's.
