The Benjamin was a schooner - one of many - owned and operated by the pirate Benjamin Hornigold during the early 18th century.
In 1718, Hornigold's Benjamin and Edward Thatch's Queen Anne's Revenge attacked a British Man O' War in order to obtain medicines for the settlement at Nassau. During the engagement, Benjamin was severely damaged.
Two years later, now-Templar affiliated Benjamin Hornigold was pursued by Edward Kenway, who forced the Benjamin to run aground.
