I've ascended to a whole new level: my crew loyalty has risen to 100%!!!

I currently have circa 220 crew members. 75 marines, 60 gunners, 13 officers and 65 sailors. The reason they are so happy is that I have 1.3 million pesos (from which derives the term pieces of eight) to share with them.

I am currently raking the Spanish along the main and replacing the Spanish governors with... my own officers! I'm getting everything in the port, then simply sailing back in and selling all of the goods to the prize court.

I'm about to take on a couple of Dutch ports in the middle of the Spanish main and these ports are MINTED. I went through a test run last week and I picked up almost 200 jewels from them - alone these are worth a bloody fortune.
