Changes Coming to Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland will have the attraction closing starting February 26, 2018 with an expected re-open date of March 19, 2018.
The Pirates of the Caribbean attraction will be undergoing changes in the scene where the pirates are auctioning off the Redhead, amongst other women. This is expected to be transformed into something more family friendly.

The artist rendering shows the new scene being changed to the pirates forcing the townspeople to auction off their valuables. Among other things this appears to including a grandfather clock, a picture frame and goats. With the Redhead herself being a pirate instead of a wench being auctioned for a wife.

Past modifications to the attraction included making women chase the pirates, rather than inferring what might happen if the women were caught while being chased by pirates. Others were the overlay of the blockbuster movie characters.
The attraction will be closed as the work on the scene transformation is carried out.
Opened: December 15, 1973
Ride length: approx 8 minutes, 30 seconds
Fastpass: Yes
Handicapped Accessibility: Guests in wheelchairs must be able to transfer to the ride vehicle.
Overview:
The queue line twists and turns in a darkened, cool underground cavern that leads to the boat ride. The Pirates of the Caribbean attraction is quick loading and each boat holds about 30 people.
After a close encounter with Blackbeard and Davy Jones, you'll float through a cave to a dark plunge. Where you'll find yourself in the midst of a battle with cannon shots and Captain Barbossa shouting orders from a pirate ship. Be on the lookout for Captain Jack Sparrow, while he plays hide and seek as he pops up from a barrel and peeks from behind a mannequin.
Listen and you'll hear the song "Yo ho, yo ho, a pirates' life for me."
