When did the first ever pirate set sale?

The first recorded pirate ship to set sail is often considered to be "The Revenge," which was captained by the infamous pirate Edward Teach, also known as Blackbeard, in the early 18th century. However, piracy as a practice dates back much further, with evidence of pirate activities occurring as early as the 14th century. Notably, the so-called "Golden Age of Piracy" spanned from the late 17th century to the early 18th century, when piracy became particularly prominent in the Caribbean and along the American colonies.
