Personality
Unlike most pirates Big Hat Pirate is interested in stealing hats only and is willing to go to extreme lengths to get them from other people.

In-game
Big Hat Pirate makes his first appearance in level seven Marooned where he meets two of the pirates controlled by the player and attacks them in an attempt to steal their hats. Here he can be taken down by blockading him in with crates and waiting until he uses an explosive, using the player's weapons to toss him into the water and/or striking him with 22 times with weapons. His own weapons on this level include cherry bombs, rum bottles, bananas and boulders.

Big Hat Pirate is seen for a second time on level fifteen Mega Beach where he has somehow turned a zombie. In this level he's battling the player's pirates on a large beach and he now has cherry bombs and tidal waves in his arsenal. A sure way to take him down on this level is to dodge his attacks until he eventually kills himself with his own tidal waves.
