To unlock the final tier of Jackdaw upgrades in Black Flag Resynced, you need all 12 Ultimate Ship Plans. Six are found in underwater shipwrecks (requires the Diving Bell, unlocked in Sequence 6), and six come from buried treasure (find the treasure map first, then sail to the dig location). This guide covers every coordinate you need.
Important: What You Need First
- Diving Bell: Unlocked automatically in Sequence 6, Mission 1 ("Diving for Medicines"). Without it, you cannot access any shipwreck plans.
- Harbourmaster Level 3: Even after finding all 12 plans, you must fully upgrade the Harbourmaster at Great Inagua (8,000 Reales total) before purchasing Ultimate-tier upgrades.
- Nothing is missable. All plans can be collected after the story ends.

Efficient Collection Order
- Before Sequence 6: Collect all 6 treasure map plans. They're available as early as Sequence 2 and don't require the Diving Bell.
- Sequence 6: Immediately do the "Diving for Medicines" mission to unlock the Diving Bell.
- After Sequence 6: Collect all 6 shipwreck plans. Start with the easiest wrecks (San Ignacio, Antocha) and save Kabah Ruins for last (most sharks).
- Don't forget: Upgrade the Harbourmaster to level 3 before trying to purchase Ultimate-tier upgrades.
