Campaign Game Bugged - Help!

So I'm new to the game and needless to say I've been loving it! I booted up very first campaign and immediately I got hooked! I'm now level 48, Cape trelawney unlocked and booming, embesa just started! Games going amazing!

Here's the problem, I have an early game quest stuck! Chapter 2 campaign, "Lost and Found".

The flotsam object (world object GUID 101717, spawned near collectable 101194) never spawned in my world, so there's no map marker and nothing to pick up. The quest is completely stuck at 0/1.

I've already tried:

The Anno 1800 Python Sender with every quest completion command I could find

Spawning the flotsam item directly into my ship's cargo

A mod to unlock the New World region directly (GUID 180025)

Digging through assets.xml to find every relevant GUID

The hidden sub-quest (151020) is waiting for a CollectablesCollected counter for object 101194 to reach 1, which never triggers because the world object doesn't exist.

I have the autosave and all the GUIDs. Is there any tool or method to either spawn object 101717 or directly edit the save file to fix this? I really don't want to restart, but feeling a bit like that's already a foregone conclusion!
