There are six larger ships available for sale at Dragon Cove. They have a range of costs, and a new ship will allow you to earn more doubloons to buy even larger ones. It does not take as long as you think.
Their cost in doubloons is
3000 --- Jimmy Rigger (1 cannon)
9000 --- Carabelle (1 cannon)
30000 -- Sea Sultan (2 cannon)
90000 -- The Koi (3 cannon)
300000 - Steaming Fury (4 cannon)
1,000,000 doubloons (for the largest ship, the Phoenix Warbird).
BEST WAYS TO EARN DOUBLOONS:
1) pick up salvage items (around Dragon Cove and Golden Harbor)
2) sink pirate ships and sea monsters (very risky but lucrative)
3) trade wisely(buy cargo where cheap, sell where expensive)
(see the related question)
This is not a secret : you can walk right in the door at Ship Shape Shipbuilders on Dragon Cove and see them all. Normally you will buy each larger ship as you can afford it, getting a small trade-in for the old ship. You may skip some.
Normally, you would only need about half these amounts (after paying off any loan you have). You can borrow up to your total net worth from the Golden Harbor Bank.
Jimmy Rigger - 3,000 doubloons
Carabelle - 9,000 doubloons
Sea Sultan - 30,000 doubloons
The Koi - 90,000 doubloons
Steaming Fury - 250,000 doubloons
Phoenix Warbird - 1,000,000 doubloons

it costs 20,000 doubloons
Well, You Have To Buy (With Dabloons) A Character (On Each Island).... But They'll Cost Alot of Dabloons!!
Well on each island, usually in a building there is someone you can hire. each of them have different uses and expenses. All them cost doubloons to hire.
The person you can hire on Bouffant bay is inside the warehouse. He will cost you about 15,000 doubloons.
You can get a larger ship when you can afford one, at the Shipbuilder in Dragon Cove. The smaller ships have a small trade-in value (25% of their cost).
it costs 1,000,000 ( one million ) doubloons. that's a lot of money! trade a lot, and EVERY day and it wont be long before you acquire it.
The amounts of cost for medicine, silk, spice, and grain are changing all the time. The best way to get profits is to go to each island clockwise, buying the cheapest thing and selling it at the next island for a lot of money.
As of December 21, 2009, the 10th island of Poptropica was available to Early Access through the Poptropica Store. The cost was 500 credits.
Either Parrot Port or Golden Harbor, usually Parrot Port. Prices constantly change. Parrot Port is the exception to the clockwise trading route because nothing is ever very cheap to buy there.
100 credit if you finish an island 75 for costume 250 for gold card 350 for your own room
That would be the Haunted House mini-island. You can get this free from the store; it's one of the golden cards and will cost you no credits. Ask if you need any help with this island, when completed it earns you 50 credits; but it's tricky! (:
ok so there is your original helpers (cabin boy & cook) then you have cargo master (+cargo space) shipwright (auto heal) cannoneer (reload speed) navigator (ship speed) so all up there should be 6 (six) helpers in your boat hope this helped
