SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Pilot's Almanac for HarnWorld. Lots of Baltic / Atlantic flavour, late viking to late medieval. Sadly pricey, like all of the Harn materials: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/214820/Pilots-Almanac-Maritime--Piloting-Rules

I second this. Yes it is pricey but it is very good and well done. As an added bonus you can build your own ships.

In terms of complexity it not quite as straightforward as Classic Traveller Starship and Trade rules from the 3 LBBs. But not as complex as Traveller High Guard and Book 7 Merchant either.

I would use The Minrothad Guilds, which has a Traveller style trade system https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/17346/GAZ9-The-Minrothad-Guilds-Basic

Yes. This is a pretty good Gazeteer for BX/BECMI and the system can be plugged into AD&D or other games with little hassle depending on the system.

When I ran a pirate game with the D6 system, one thing I had trouble with was coming up with a good price list for equipment/ships/cargoes.

I've since picked up the first volume of The Value of a Dollar which lists prices for items going back to 1610.
