Treasure

The Treasure is the end goal in Build a Boat for Treasure. It is obtained by passing through all the Stages without dying and floating to the island. Upon touching it for the first time, it will reward the player the Master Boater! badge, unlocks Quests, rewards a Gold Block, unlocks them to buy planes, and gives 105 gold (200 with Gold Multiplier and 132 gold with Group Perk, 237 with both). After touching it, the player will teleport back to their Building Space. All subsequent treasures will give the same rewards, except for the badge.

The player must touch the lid of the chest or the sides of the chest to open it. A slight delay has been added and it will take around 7 seconds after touching it to respawn.

Trivia

 * In the 2017 Build A Boat For Treasure Christmas event, getting the treasure also awarded the player with a Large Green Present equal to 8 blocks.
 * Touching the treasure without passing through any Black Walls will instantly kill the player, and does not reward a Gold Block unless the Stage Entrance or one black wall is touched. Dependent on how many Black Walls the player touched, the treasure will reward little or no gold.
 * Normally, the amount of Gold obtained (if any) when the player does not pass through any of the black walls is 3, 4 with Member, 6 with the Gold Multiplier gamepass, and 7 with both.
 * With the introduction of new Stages and the many glitches that have been patched, reaching the treasure has become much harder.
 * There was a light tan, shiny block with gold edges and had crosses on it, this was recently removed for an unknown reason after someone asked the creator about it.
 * It was previously possible to claim the treasure thousands of times consecutively by losing connection while standing on the chest; however, this glitch has since been patched.
 * Using an alternative way in a quest, getting the giant soccer ball from the Soccer Ball Quest to touch the treasure will reward the player with 10 Soccer balls and 3000 gold.
 * The treasure has a "cooldown" when touched, and cannot reward or teleport another player for about 10 seconds after the rewards are collected. This is meant to halt complex exploits and prevent any possible glitches with two or more players touching the treasure at the same time.
 * Touching the chest while using the Build Tool will create a "ghost" of whatever block is selected.
 * Any item or block that is on the treasure chest will not get destroyed by the sand. This means the player can attach a Portal to themselves and place the portal on the chest. This allows them to teleport to the.
 * As of the 6/20/20 update, the play an opening animation when the player touches it.
 * Sometimes, if you walk inside the opened chest, you can stand in front of a pile of gold elevated higher than the rest, and when the chest closes, instead of pushing you out of it, it squishes you and flings you a few studs backwards.
