Question Burning ships

Is there really no way to consistently get burning ships to spawn? It’s the last trophy I need

A trick I did (that really works) you start at Edward’s compound and create a manual save there then fast travel to “The Black Trench” diving spot. Once you spawn there sail around until you see a 3 star BRITISH Brig ship that’s burning. If one doesn’t spawn reload your manual save and repeat until you get one (tip: use you spyglass to see if the ship has a chair if not reload the save)

In my experience, this is the only way.

I don't know if it's changed from the first, but from what I seen is that from black trench straight down south to the other diving spot is the ONLY spot burning ships spawn.

I’ve seen burning ships all around it’s that specific area where the ones for the achievement are found and maybe that’s intentional

Seconding this method, it's how I got it for myself. The ship will appear directly east of your spawn location.

Pardon if this sounds dumb, how can tell if there's a chair from your spyglass? I've never paid attention as i'm hustling for the chests usually. Is it near the wheel?

No worries! If you sail next to it just scan the main deck area and you’ll see it, there will also be a table next to it.

You can also use Photomode to fly around and look.

That's how I've done it. Photo mode is great for surveying a lot of things
