try to bribe a guard in a storage room (doesnt works all the time) or u can wait in storage until midnight (use + to accelerate time)
 
I just walk in at middle of the day, take them (blueprints) from the table. Then some dudes showed up, try to kill me, but they die <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/duel_pa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ixi" border="0" alt="duel_pa.gif" /> (exept one, he was invincible, no health loss). Then I walk away... Simple and efficient (but with slight rep loss) <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />o)

Cheers
Happy!
 
Apparently there is another random(?) way to obtain the blueprints...
I had such an espionage quest open, almost forgot about it.
Then on one clear and sunny day a dutch military patrol (2 ships) decided they don't like my face so I sunk the first one and boarded the 2nd; her captain had blueprints in his cabin that triggered the espionage quest completion - I only had to report back to the shipwright with them.
 
Interesting.
I usually go to the shipyard before 21 o'clock and wait till the shipwright leaves. Then I grab the blueprints without loss of money/reputation.

Well, there are 2 ways.

First one is plain and simple, take the blue print from the desk of the owner, and you will need to fight with him, and other guys....

But there is other way without a fight and reputation loss, first check 2 things:

a) The blue prints must be in the desk of the shipyard owner.
b) There must be other door, which take you to some storage.

Now, go to repair your ship at the evening, just at an hour before the shipyard owner leave, i think before 18 hours should be ok.

After you repair your ship, you will notice that have passed some hours (depends of the amount of repairment your ship needed), now must be very late, before the 21 hours should be enough.

But the owner still is on his desk.

Now, go to the other door, to the storage, perhaps you will find someone there (you dont need to talk to him or do anything), now take back to the main office.

You will notice that the shipyard owner has left, just take the blue prints and leave, now go to the brothel, tavern, or whatever you like to celebrate your success...

The only bad thing with this random quest is that the reward is very miserable, it dont pay the trip.
 
Hello Matey,

The easiest way to take the blueprint, it's go the Shipyard at no more than 19 o'clock (just few time before all stores have been closed). Then, go to the door were a guy guard some coffers, and wait until 22 o'clock (you can pick up the content of this coffers but take care the guard show you or you will be in trouble). At this moment, you just have to go the shipyard desk and pick the blueprint.
This way, you will have no fight with any guys nor town guards and your reputation will not suffer from this theft. ;)
Now you just have to return the plans to the customer ask you for them...
 
SPOILER ALERT

"The only bad thing with this random quest is that the reward is very miserable, it dont pay the trip."

I got nothing at all - he said it was the wrong set of plans? If I argue with him I get killed...

I wasn't known this way to solve that quest. It's very interesting... :)
 
Any way to get the guy to pay me for doing this quest? persuasion skills or something?
