- When a player loads goods of a kind, he must load as many of that kind as he can. A player cannot hold back goods when there is space on a ship carrying the kind of goods he has. If a player has a kind of goods that can be loaded on several empty ships, he must choose the ship where he can load the most goods, leaving none behind, if possible.

- If a player has several kinds of goods that he can load, he may choose
freely, which goods to load. He need not choose the goods that would allow
him to load the most barrels.
