The first two were hard. But the others are right, once you catch on it's fun :)

Clue #1 - The coordinates are for Jean Lafitte, Louisiana. Jean Lafitte was also know as The Gentleman Pirate of New Orleans

Clue #2 - The image is of Captain Morgan as picture by the brand of rum of the same name. Captain Morgan rum is based off of 17th-century Caribbean pirate, Henry Morgan. Henry Morgan began producing rum in 1680 on the island of Jamaica.

Clue #3 - Floreat Etona is Eton's official motto; Latin for "May Eton Flourish". They were also the last words of Captain Hook as he fell overboard, suggesting that he was from Eton College.

Clue #4 - The two flags are the pirate flags of Bartholomew Roberts, otherwise known as Black Bart. He bore a grudge against the island colonies of Barbados and Martinique, so in their waters he used a flag showing a pirate figure (presumably Roberts himself) standing on two skulls. Under one were the letters 'ABH' (standing for 'A Barbadian's Head'), and under the other was 'AMH' (for 'A Martiniquan's Head'). The threat was clear and sailors from those colonies would expect no mercy if they offered any resistance.

The four clues were to be used as the passwords for the decrypter given in the first post. They were:

1. Jean Lafitte
2. Henry Morgan
3. Captain Hook
4. Bartholomew Roberts

Well, I came in #3, guess mostly by luck, I figured out 3 of the 4 and searched the 4 likely areas and found sea and pop prowling and found an island with a prize :D The first two wqere relatively easy to find and the third took a lot of thinking. The fourth I had no clue where to begin.
