He doesn't need to see the map. He knows where the treasure is buried.
Once you recover the 5 map pieces, revealing the small island Skullduggery, you still have to earn enough doubloons to buy the Phoenix Warbird, and hire the Shipwright and Cannoneer. Only when you have defeated Captain Crawfish will the governor give you the directions to the buried treasure.
Although you can go there and look around, there is nothing to do until the end of the quest, once you have driven off Captain Crawfish and the Governor gives you the location of the Buried Treasure on Skullduggery.
You can't do anything except look around until you have defeated Captain Crawfish. Once you beat his ship, return to Fort Ridley and the Governor will give you a bone shovel and the location of the buried treasure on Skullduggery. Sail there and dig up the treasure.
If you look at the island in the middle it is to the right of it
look around and ask too people give clues to where the treasure map is. I beat it using no cheats. Take my advise it works.
You signal the man that has been missing for a year on a raft. Afterr you have read the parchment and accepted the Governor's quest, look for the raft with the telescope, and then use the mirror. When he docks, he will give you the raft.
you put the map together take it to the governer go to the new island and defeat captain craw fish than look for theplace where they burrid the tresure and use the shovel there
Well, you look at the archway and it has engravings of the lights you have to turn on and off. After you do that then the parchment will appear.
You must defeat Captain Crawfish first. To defeat him, get all map pieces, get the warship "Phoneix Warbird", and hire all of the crew members if you could. Then you go to skull duggery island under Pirate Post, go near it then Captain Crawfish would appear to battle you. After you defeat him, sail back to Fort Ridely, then go all the way right to the Governor's house. Talk to the Governor to get the Bone Shovel and the Treasure Map. Sail back to Skull Duggery Island, then dock there. Swim all the way to the right until you reach an island with a black flag on the highest rock. Look at the treasure map, or just go to the rock that is beside the tree, and use the bone shovel. You would dig up the treasure... And you would have to find out the rest of it yourself :)
you dock at the closest island and look for the trading area and click on the person there then theyll say lets trade and there u go
Once you read the Governor's parchment and accept the quest, get the broken mirror from the upper right shelf in the General Store and go back to the telescope at the observation tower. You should now see a raft, which you can signal using the mirror icon on the left side of the view.
Look under and find the treasure
Look around the islands. It might be different for you but i found the 13 wishes advertisment in skullduggery island
