I'm currently going there with my sloop and net between 500 and 1000 sailing rep. per run. Not much money in it though, because of my small gargo space. But Josie's restocking and Bartholomew's quests help a bit. I'm not going to put points on treasure sense, at least yet, since I don't see myself sailing just for fun or even to collect money, as I'm beginning to be very fed up with sailing at the moment. But I'll keep this going until sailing is mastered and I don't need to worry about that skill anymore. Then I'll stay on land as much as possible...

A pirate not very fond of sailing, very weird, I guess Simon's a land pirate...

I do alot of sailing outside padres, but it can get tricky there. You just have to sail around the ocean and find a area that best suites your needs. I posted the strategy that i use in another thread, the one a bout leveling up quickly, check that out, it might help.
