Queen Anne's Revenge

Queen Anne's Revenge was an early-18th-century ship, most famously used as a flagship by Edward Teach, better known as Blackbeard. The date and place of the ship's construction are uncertain, and there is no record of her actions prior to 1710 when she was operating as a French privateer as La Concorde. Surviving features of the ship's construction strongly suggest she was built by French shipwrights, based on differences in fastening patterns in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. After several years of French service, both as a naval frigate and as a merchant vessel – much of that time as a slave ship – she was captured by Blackbeard in 1717. Blackbeard used the ship for less than a year, but captured numerous prizes using her as his flagship.
