How To Get Kraken-Chan and Recruit Surfer Jay in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii

Embark on a swashbuckling adventure as Goro Majima, Captain of the Goro Pirates, in *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii*. Building your crew is key, and this guide will help you recruit the unique Surfer Jay.

Recruiting Surfer Jay: A Step-by-Step Guide

Surfer Jay, a powerful recruit found in Honolulu, boasts impressive base stats compared to earlier crew members. However, acquiring him requires a bit more legwork than your average pirate. The key is a specific item: Kraken-Chan.

First, set sail for Madlantis. There, you'll find a UFO Catcher claw machine near the Madlantis Golf Range. Your goal: to win Kraken-Chan, a blue plush. If Kraken-Chan isn't immediately available, speak to the attendant to change the prizes.

Winning Kraken-Chan might take a few tries and some in-game cash. Use strategic claw movements to nudge the plush towards the prize slot. Once you have Kraken-Chan, return to Honolulu.

Locate Surfer Jay at Tropical Coco in the Anaconda Shopping Center. If you're having trouble finding him, use your mini-map to locate recruitable pirate symbols (bandana and sword). He's usually chilling near his surfboard in a garage.

Speak to Jay; he'll reveal a personal dilemma. Present him with Kraken-Chan, and he'll join your crew, adding his considerable strength to your ranks. While he doesn't have unique perks as First Mate or Boarding Squad Leader, completing his recruitment is a must for dedicated players.
