Undefeatable, huh? Try this for a workable (at least I hope so - I did this
for a friend, and he hasn't reported any problems), but somewhat "dirty" krack:

Find  : 6DB0 4267 A861 301F 4840 4240
Change: same same same same same 4280

Find  : 5C8F 5440 D12D DC2A
Change: same 1B7C 0016 same

The first patch makes the game to always ask for Treasure Fleet, Caracas. And
the second patch fools the program into receiving the correct answer regardless
of what you enter.
