The Curse of Monkey Island Hints
How do I find the captain?
1 of 14: You're not going to get in by yourself.
2 of 14: You need a little help.
3 of 14: Maybe you could get someone to deliver you?
4 of 14: Captain Blondebeard said he was going to deliver some chicken to the captain.
5 of 14: He would deliver you if he thought you were a chicken.
6 of 14: Some feathers would help your appearance in this case.
7 of 14: Try going on the deck of the pirate's ship and then walk toward the tar. The first mate of the ship should catch you and threaten you.
8 of 14: One of your choices is to be tarred and feathered.
9 of 14: But he's not going to take you up on that until he has to.
10 of 14: That is, until your walking the plank is no longer an option.
11 of 14: Try getting rid of the plank.
12 of 14: Saw it off while you're still on the row boat.
13 of 14: Use the serrated bread knife that's stuck in the customer's back at Blondebeard's to saw the plank, and then climb back on the ship. When they discover you this time, they'll have no choice but to tar and feather you.
14 of 14: Then, go to Blondebeard's and he'll deliver you to the ship.
