Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced: Naval Contract Locations & Interactive Tracking Guide

Naval Contracts in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced are the 15 optional naval bounty missions issued by Milo Van Der Graaf at Great Inagua — ship-hunting assignments that send the Jackdaw across the Caribbean Sea to sink, board, or eliminate specific enemy vessels for Reales.

Completing all 15 earns a combined 22,800 Reales, the Black Skull Sails (Legendary Sail Set), and the Handsome Devils Crew Attire (Rare).

All their locations are fully documented on our Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced interactive maps.

How to Unlock Naval Contracts

Naval Contracts do not appear until a specific story milestone is reached. Complete the Main Quest "This Old Cove" (Sequence 4, Mission 1) to establish Great Inagua as Edward's hideout, then head to the docks and find Milo Van Der Graaf standing near the Harbourmaster.

Accepting and completing the first contract — "A Spanish Plague" — immediately unlocks the remaining Naval Contracts across the Caribbean map, visible as ship icons in the quest log.

15 Contracts, One Gated Finale

The first 14 Naval Contracts are accepted from Milo at the docks and from Naval Contract boards across Havana, Nassau, Salt Key Bank, Andreas Island, and other Caribbean settlements.

The fifteenth and final contract — "The Final Contract" — remains locked until every other contract is completed. It then appears from Milo at the manor in Great Inagua and awards the Black Skull Sails (Legendary) and Handsome Devils Crew Attire (Rare) on completion alongside its Reales payout.

Great Inagua hosts the highest concentration of Naval Contracts (5 total) — all issued by Milo across his two locations at the docks and the manor.

Secondary Objectives: Extra Reales Per Contract

Some Naval Contracts carry a secondary bonus objective — a specific method of defeating the target ship that awards an extra 900–1,200 Reales on top of the base payout:

• Eye For An Eye — board the San Lorenzo Frigate without using mortars. Bonus: +900 Reales.
• Blind Justice — sink all 3 escort ships before boarding the British Man o' War. Bonus: +900 Reales.
• Papers, Please — board the HMS Courage rather than sinking it. Bonus: +1,200 Reales.

Completing every secondary objective across these contracts significantly increases the total Reales earned beyond the base 22,800 — making Naval Contracts one of the best income activities in the game for players who engage with the bonus conditions.

Important: Contracted Ships Are Still Normal Ships

Every contracted vessel counts as a standard naval target during the encounter.

Board the ship for the captain's chest, use the hull to repair the Jackdaw, or board to lower the Wanted Level — all are valid mid-contract. The secondary objective must still be met if the bonus Reales are wanted, but the ability to board, repair, and loot is never restricted by contract status.

Known Bug: Hunter Gatherer

The Hunter Gatherer contract — which requires raising a high Wanted Level and then sinking Pirate Hunter frigates — has a confirmed tracking bug for some players where sunk Pirate Hunters do not register toward the contract's objective counter.

If kills aren't counting, try attacking a different Pirate Hunter ship type, leaving and re-entering the area, or reloading a recent save to reset the contract's tracking state.
