I've never offered my ship, but I have been doing what others here mentioned for over a year. When I'm about to log off, if I have things that can be left behind like empty treasure chests or cannonball crates, or now storage crates, I'll just leave them on the dock of the Outpost when I log off in case another pirate spawns in or happens along before they despawn. I do this in pretty much every game that I play. If I can leave a cannonball crate, plank crate or fruit crate behind, I'll fill it up with what I have as well.
I have to say that I've never really been the recipient of such kindness, but it doesn't matter to me, I still do it. 😅👍
But, funny enough, I think it was 3 days ago on the 14th, I just took these screenshots because I was playing and spawned in and couldn't believe it. I walked out of the tavern and saw a whole bunch of glimmering lights right in front of the dock! I've never lucked upon this before so I stopped in my tracks and just stared at it for a few seconds lol. 😳
I went and looked and it was 6 empty treasure chests and a jam packed storage crate, full of all supplies including baits and cursed cannonballs too.
I couldn't believe it lol. It was so nice of someone to do, and I was ready for my adventures as soon as I left the dock lol. Big thanks to the kind mystery pirate for doing this, because it was really nice. 😎🙌😇🌊
If you don't have the time to do a LFG post to give your ship away, this is always another great option. I'll always keep doing this because even if it's only a 50/50 chance that somebody will find it, it's a nice surprise when you do. And it reminds everyone that there are nice pirates on the Sea that aren't always out for blood lol. 🤔😅🤭☠👍
