Just a quick note: Doing these quests does not point you torwards picking horde when you get to pick faction.
This is just a part of a pretty big chain quest where you'll help both Alliance and Horde, and in the end of the chain you'll be able to chose which one to represent.

Make sure to pick up the quest "Evil from the Seas" since you will be attacked by the Darkened Horrors you have to kill for that quest while completing this one. Might as well get credit for the kills.
You will find packs of explosives in the immediate area, target them until the gear symbol shows up - them click.
Hehe, has anyone else noticed that you have to pick up explosives for Makael Bay. Well played Blizzard, well played.

What to do
Description
We can help you get your ship free, but we'll need more of the explosives we were trying to take back from the Alliance to make it happen. I ordered the men to grab all the explosives they could before making our escape. If you sift through the wreckage and bodies to our south, there should be some explosive bundles among them, those that didn't already blow up anyway. Get me enough of them and I think I can put something together for ya.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
