Once you have completed The Pirate and His Goddess Quest you will have unlocked the pirate ship, the pirate ship is used for trading to be able to build the ancient goddess monument.
Click on the pirate ship to see the trade being offered.
What do you pay?
You trade materials that you use to build the other monuments, such as wind, as well as LPs, SPs and simoleons!
What do you receive?
You will receive a piece needed to upgrade the ancient goddess monument
After you have traded you cannot trade again for 24 hours unless you use the message in the bottle which will call the pirate back straight away with another trade, but this will cost you LPs.
Continue trading to level up the monument
Thank you cdgamer10 for this image!
How many levels are there to fully upgrade the monument?
There are 25 levels
Why does it need to be built?
Once fully upgraded to level 25 you will earn bonus hobby skills points after any hobby interaction! Which means your sims will level up in hobbies faster
Also once built you will earn a 1LP reward twice a week:
Saturday between 8pm and 12am
Wednesday between 9am and 1pm
click on the monument to collect your rewards during these times
My opinion?
I am a little disappointed in the pirate ship, I thought it was going to be a public area that could be explored but instead its just for another boring monument! But the bonus hobby skill points and free LPs you earn once you completely build the monument are worth the time taken to build it!
Why does the pirate ship remain once you have finished building the ancient goddess monument?
The ship stays because once you earn the gems the pirate will trade resources for a treasure chest which ‘gives you the chance to earn useful items such as furniture or rare artefacts’
Polina said ‘I managed to open a few treasure chests after the goddess was complete, and it’s just furniture from the store, mostly neo tokyo. Sometimes, it gives you 1LP’
If anyone else has traded for a treasure chest I would love to know what you got in it!

Some times are slightly different on my game, why is this?
Times may vary depending on the star rating of the item you are using, as the higher star rating an item has the quicker you will complete a goal
Some times are really off/ different goals show for me, why is this? This will be because the quest has been updated recently, I try my best to keep these posts up to date but it is difficult as I cannot redo every quest each time the game is updated. If you notice any changes please let me know so I can update the post
