What about a treasure map - somewhere in the house he will be opening the present - and hide the Old Jamica - or just give him the map and the treasue chest will be the treasure! - hope this made sense!

Rum soaked raisins make a great treat with plain vanilla ice-cream. If you started a jar now you'd be amazed at how much rum the raisins can drink by christmas!

An eyepatch! I actually woke up this morning thinking of eyepatches.

IKEA do one - http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/30079407 it's £9.99 though so might be a bit pricey unless you think it might get some use after.

I seem to remember that the wrapper had an old galleon on the front or I'm remembering something else lol. Anyway, thought a ship in a bottle kit may be a fun thing to stick in http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/search-handle-url/index=toys-uk&field-keywords=ship%20in%20a%20bottle&results-process=default&dispatch=search/ref=pd_sl_aw_tops-2_toys-uk_207485349_1&results-process=default

Sorry, don't know how to condense and just pop 'click' there.
Another idea could be to get an empty bottle, make some of that 'old paper' we all did at school (aged with tea and burnt a bit at the edges) and get him to write a message to take to the sea next time he goes on holiday.

How about sticking in a Jamaican recipe along with a couple of the unusual ingredients he may not have at home.
A rasta hat.
Some cheap, kids bongo drums lol.
A coconut.
