The Spanish Gold is a ship hull color cosmetic in Windrose, applied at the Shipwright to customize a player ship's hull paintwork. The Spanish Gold design is associated with Smugglers of Port Royal.
How Hull Paint Works
Spanish Gold is a hull paint, one of the cosmetic ship colors in Windrose. It changes only the painted appearance of a ship's hull and has no effect on speed, cargo, armor, or any combat statistic. Paint is applied through the Shipwright infrastructure: dock the vessel at a player-built Wharf, open the Manage Ship menu, and switch to the Customization tab. Select the hull slot, then pick Spanish Gold from the list of unlocked colors.
Once the design is unlocked it stays unlocked for your character. You can repaint it onto any ship you own, swapping freely between unlocked colors, and repainting an already-owned color costs no Guinea. This makes hull paint a one-time unlock rather than a consumable, so there is no penalty to switching looks between voyages.
In-Game Description
A warm golden hue that calls to mind galleons with holds full of treasure.

How to Apply
Bring the ship to a Shipwright-built Wharf, open the customization menu, and select the matching hull slot. Spanish Gold appears in the option list once the unlock condition (Style Book or stock availability) is met.
Where to Find
Unlocked by reading the matching Style Book, sold by the Smugglers of Port Royal Provisioner. Style Books for the Smugglers of Port Royal are priced in Guineas, not Piastres, and gated behind reputation tiers. Building Smugglers of Port Royal reputation is the practical route to stocking the matching Style Book at the Smugglers of Port Royal Provisioner.
Compatible Ships
This cosmetic name appears in the database under the Brig-class entry, but the underlying design is shared across Brig, Frigate, and Ketch hull classes. Once the Style Book is read, the option is available for every ship class your character has built or unlocked.

Usage Notes
Spanish Gold reads as a warm, treasure-galleon look that pairs naturally with a Smugglers of Port Royal themed loadout. Because it is purely visual, it is safe to apply to any hull, including a Brig, Frigate, or Ketch, without affecting performance. If you later prefer a darker scheme, you can repaint to another unlocked color at the Wharf at no cost.
