2	Matanzas	(333, 650)	Overseer near the sugar mill; sleep dart from the sugar cane field

Pro Warehouse Strategy:

Always sabotage the alarm bell first before looting. If the bell rings, the reward drops by 50%.
Sell all collected Sugar and Rum immediately to the nearest Harbourmaster (they are trade goods meant exclusively for cash conversion).

2. Hunting Royal Naval Convoys & High-Tier Man-o-Wars

Royal Convoys (marked as glowing blue ship icons on your map) transport imperial treasuries:

Scan with Spyglass: Convoys carry 10,000 to 20,000 Reales in raw cash, plus hundreds of units of Metal and Wood.
The Boarding Multiplier: Always board the flagship instead of sinking it. Boarding grants 100% of cargo plus the Captain's Lockbox bonus (+2,000–5,000 Reales).
Zero-Bounty Solo Boarding Trick:
- If your Jackdaw is under-leveled, sail 150 meters away, dive into the water, and swim aboard the enemy Man-o-War solo.
- Assassinate the crew and interact with the helm to trigger Scuttle Ship. You receive full rewards with zero damage taken and zero notoriety gained.

3. Great White Shark Harpooning at Cabo de Cruz

For rapid cash without naval risk:

Location: Harpooning spot at (490, 303) south of Cabo de Cruz.
Tactic: Equip the Exotic Sea Shells Trinket (doubles wildlife yield). Each Great White Shark catch yields 2 Shark Skins and 2 Shark Bones, which sell for 3,200 Reales per hunt.
A full 10-minute session yields 15,000 – 20,000 Reales.

4. Passive Income: Manor Facade & Kenway's Fleet

1. Great Inagua Manor Facade Upgrade

Spend 4,000 Reales at your Great Inagua ledger to construct the Manor Facade.
Upgraded town buildings (Tavern, Brothel, General Store, Harbourmaster) increase your estate income chest to generate 4,000 Reales every 20 minutes automatically.

2. Kenway's Fleet Trade Routes

Capture Level 38 Brigs and Level 60 Man-o-Wars and assign them to your fleet:

Northwest Passage Route: 5,000 Reales / 6 hours.
Mediterranean Wine Route: 7,500 Reales / 8 hours.
Run these routes in the background while playing the story for effortless passive wealth.
