Captain's Hat Skin — Detailed Guide
A trophy from the Alpha Leedsichthys
The Captains Hat is a headgear skin in ARK: Survival Ascended and ARK: Survival Evolved; ASE calls it 
Captain's Hat Skin. Put on any piece of headgear, it makes that item look like a captain's hat. The item text tells a small story: "Found deep within the belly of a great white beast, this hat is all that remains of the last brave soul that tried to slay the creature."
Getting the skin
The ARK Wiki lists it as a drop from the 
Alpha Leedsichthys, and our loot data agrees, with the Alpha Leedsichthys as the single source on record. Our database also holds a recipe of 5 
Popsicle for it and gives 12 crafting XP. On console and PC, the wiki adds, the skin is not returned to your inventory after a respawn.
Maps and weight
Our records list it on 4 maps: Valguero, The Center, Ragnarok and The Island. It weighs 0, and the skin has been in the game since patch 256.0.
A literary nod
The wiki suggests the hat is probably an Easter egg pointing to the novel Moby Dick, in which the captain is killed by the whale.
