Charles Vane the Terror of the Seas

Charles Vane terrorized the Caribbean in the early 1700's. But in 1720 that all came to an end when he lost his ship in a storm.  

Charles Vane at a Glance 

Charles Vane (c.1680 ? March 29, 1721) was an English pirate who preyed upon English and French shipping. His pirate career lasted from 1716 - 1719. His flagship was a brigantine named the Ranger.

Vane was among the pirate captains who operated out of the notorious base at New Providence in the Bahamas after the British abandoned the colony during the War of Spanish Succession. After a relatively long and violent career in piracy he was captured and in 1721 was executed by hanging at Gallows Point, Port Royal, Jamaica..
