Unlimited Pirate life: Successfully complete all ten pirate quests. The game
will ask if you want to retire or not, choose "Retire".
When asked to return to the sea or not, choose "Return to
pirates life". Save the game in the current town. Reset game
and then load the saved game. Notice that the year and your age
reset, but everything else is the same. However, everyone in town
thinks you are a pirate and you cannot purchase anything or save.
Leave the town then quickly return. Notice that you can now save
the game and everyone is normal again (but your age and year remains
reset). This allows you to be an ageless pirate.
If you want to repeat this trick, follow these steps. Go to the
cabin, highlight the mirror, and click on it. Choose to retire
first, then when asked if you want to return to pirate life choose
"Yes". Save the game and reset. Load the game you just
saved, and the years should turn back. Do this every time you
want to be a young pirate again.

Hint: Sail at quicker speeds: When at the world map, hold B to make your ship
go much faster and turn quicker. Be careful when doing this around
reefs, as it increases the chance of wrecking your ship. Note:
This only works at the world map and has no effect at the battle
screen.

Hint: Easy ship capture: At the start of the game, choose Fencing as your special
skill. When you encounter an enemy ship, just steer into it. The
ships will collide, resulting in a duel between you and the opposing
captain. To win this duel easily, press A repeatedly to
stab quickly. After winning the duel, the captain will surrender
his ship to you.
