Geocache Description:

Aarrgh Mateys!!
Afore ye scoundrels kin dig fer buried treasure, ye must go here and walk the plank to find the final clue!

A map has been found giving these coordinates as the final resting place for the treasure of the dread Pirate Growltiger.

N 16 08.282
W 117 54.157


But as his bucko mate Grumbuskin discovered with his dying breath, those coordinates are in the middle of the ocean, 1500 miles off the coast of Acapulco! Luckily, Bosun Tumblebrutus, before his untimely demise at the end of the plank, found a sign containing a number that when added to one of the coordinates gives the REAL location. There are more than one number on the sign, all of which look similar to a coordinate. Use the larger number, or you too might share their watery graves!!
The number you need to use contains 7 digits!

The treasure-trove is kept in an ancient Spanish Tupperware container 3x6x2.

Cache has been replaced and includes:
A Tag Heuer watch that's right twice a day!
(Shanghai Special-needs battery)
A small padlock and key
An MP3 Player with 4 songs sung by me!
(erasable at your pleasure!)


It is a short walk, bike or drive from the first location to the next, but you will have to cross the sea to find the final cache and to do this you must have a few doubloons in your pocket. I suggest you head for the first stop from the area of Jamboree and Pacific Coast Hgwy.
