Nice simulation, Sir. However, I am not being able to operate it. I am not sure why ... :(

It’s a pitty because I know you would like to play with it. Try to download, and click to choose the language and the answers to the questions.

logically, the treasure technically could also be in places where the description does not hold true. but whatever.

1-My friend, let me tell you about the whole story: the guy that has hidden the treasure was the Norwegian pirate Olav Frederick who was my grandpa (raised to 30) and he didn’t knew that there was a lot of world beyond the Equator. Then, in his mind, the only point where those silly movements could drive to the same point would be the North Pole. No matter if you travel 3,000Km or 3,000mm.

2-The point is: if you know a point on the Earth where this is possible, then you find the treasure. So, my grandpa (raised to 20) Gunter Frederickson, found the place, digged out the treasure, bought a beach in Portugal and became a whealthy navigator that have sailed far towards the South and they said: “I’ve got a lot of luck because if I knew what I know today, I would never find the treasure because there are infinit places where it could be.

3-So, the statement is valid only in the Northest hemisphere because it was the known world at that time. You are logically and technically right; but I’m afraid you are historically wrong. Unfortunatly, my next grandpas waste all the treasure and, today, I’ve nothing in hands to prove this story. However, you can trust me because I’m a honest liar.

lets call "you have ended at the starting point" p and "you are in the location of the treasure" r. the statement "if you reached the starting point then you are in the location of the treasure" could also be shown as p→r which would be logically equivalent to its contrapositive, ~r→~p which would meant that "If you are not in the location of the treasure then you are not in the starting position."

yes but because the statement was "if you reached the starting point then you are in the location of the treasure" then the treasure is in all of the infinite places based on the logical value of the statement.
