Pirates Ahoy is a very solid game from Playfish. It has a cute and familiar art style, high amounts of polish, depth of gameplay and a lot of unique social features, and room to grow. The main issue that we can see with the game is that it might be just a bit too complicated to be immediately graspable. That might not be a bad thing, as there are millions of game players on Facebook who might be looking for the next big thing with a bit more involved learning curve in exchange for a more meaningful experience.
