In the attached game, a privateer with 74 cloth at 30,61 sucessfully attacks a merchantman at 31,67 holding 12 cloth, 20 fur, and 32 cotton. The privateer can seize only one of the three items, even though it should, IMO, be able to take two provided on of them is the 12 cloth since that would be consistent with the concepts of the holds and what a ship can carry.

This would be more interesting if the MM held 27 cloth (and particularly if the privateer held something else in its other hold). I'm thinking that the dialog box should show options to claim 26 cloth and 1 cloth.
