In general, don't trust the hint button. It doesn't give good advice most of the time (probably because it uses the AI engine, which is not very strong).
A pdf with the English rules is available at Lookout Spiele's (publisher of the board game) website: http://lookout-spiele.de/spiele/lehavre/. It's a bit down the page... wait, don't bother, here is a direct link: http://lookout-spiele.de/wp-content/uploads/LeHavre_Regeln_2...
If there are more particular questions, we're here to help you. ;)
