With the Pirates expansion, Bohnanza goes to sea. With basic Bohnanza, when players harvested 

beans they immediately sold them for gold coins. With Pirates, players may load their harvested 

beans onto ships which will deliver them to other markets for higher profits. However, there are 

pirates on the sea and they lie in wait in their pirate ships to capture the cargoes of merchant ships 

carrying beans.  
Pirates must be played with the Bohnanza basic game as this has the components necessary for up to 

seven players. Except for changes to the rules described herein, the game is played the same as basic 

Bohnanza.

Before combining the bean cards from the basic game and Pirates, remove the cards shown below 

based on the number of players in the game.

Each player takes a merchant ship and a harbor card of the same color  

and places these in her play area (the space before her on the table).  

The harbor cards are the storage places for the gold coins the players  

earn during the game.
For each player, place the second merchant ship in her color, the pirate  

ship in her color (the flag on the mast), and a 3rd bean field to the side  

on the table. Place all other merchant ships, pirate ships, and 3rd bean  

fields back in the box.
