Description

Bluenose is a fishing game based on the famous Canadian sailing ship Bluenose. The object of the game is to navigate your ship out to the fishing grounds and return safely with a catch of fish which are sold at market. The prices of the market are controlled by cards. The price of half of the fishing commodities are known and the other half hidden at all times. Navigation out to the fishing grounds is done by rolling a die. In addition, there are wind currents to speed up movement and shallows and rocks to avoid. The paths closer to the rocks are riskier, but generally faster. A collision with rocks causes a shipwreck and the loss of your catch. The first person to reach the agreed-upon amount of money (through selling fish at market) is the winner.
