Were there Jewish pirates?

When Spain has deported and exiled all the Jews in 1492, it gained quite a lot of enemies some of them were seafaring enemies.
Navigators on the Royal Spanish fleet where often Jewish, so it was inevitable to those navigators take the train into their new home. Some share the knowledge with the Ottoman Empire, and joined the efforts of harming the Spanish fleet in the Mediterranean waters. Others went as far as Jamaica where is strong Jewish community supported the attacks as revenge into Spanish Royal Fleet. In 2008 an old Jewish cemetery was found in Jamaica and apart from the Hebrew writings and the Star of David on the tombs there was also another symbol the one of the bones and the skull.
