About Pirates on the High Seas

Description of the game from Ravensburger (Translated by W. Eric Martin): The action game with lots of navigation, working cannons, and a gigantic cloth game mat! Are you ready to take to the high seas as courageous pirates fighting against one another? Then hoist the sails, raise the anchors, and take off to adventure!
