Geocache Description:

THE PIRATE SERIES: #2: WE LOVE RUM

 Here you can find a place that pirates could buy their rum or other spirits.

This is part of several caches that you need to write the codes down to find the final coordinates for Pirates Finale: Treasure Chest.

 


Since the pirates were on the open seas, particularly in the Caribbean area, rum was the drink of choice. First of all, it lasted much longer than regular water which would become stagnant on the long ocean voyages now that people were traveling across the Atlantic. Secondly, the French were monopolizing the brandy, which was rather expensive, and actually banned rum because they were afraid it would interfere with the profit from their brandy. Finally, rum was relatively easy and cheap to make.

Here are the caches you need: 2) GC5ATFO - GOLD HOOPS 3) GC5C2QW - CUTLASS 4) GC5ATGV - WE LOVE RUM 5) GC5D2FT - IN MEMORY OF PETIE 6) GC5B4Q1 - PIRATE GARB 7) GC5C2PY - MY PARROT FINAL STAGE - GC5D46R - TREASURE CHEST Note: Originally this container was attached to a key ring that made it easily retrievable. Unfortunately I think that was probably the reason it was muggled before it was even published. So you probably need a tool, or very small fingers, to get it.
