two crews celebrated for several days, but split up afterwards. In October Vane raided Eleuthera, carrying away liquor and livestock. On 23 November, Vane spotted a large frigate, but when he hoisted the Jolly Roger the frigate replied by raising a French naval ensign and opening fire. Vane's brigantine and sloop were outgunned, and he ordered a retreat. Vane's crew saw this as an act of cowardice. He was voted out of command in favor of Calico Jack Rackham. Vane and sixteen others who supported him, including his first mate Robert Deal, were put on the sloop. Vane sailed to the Bay Islands, capturing sloops along the way, one of which Deal took command of. In February 1719, Vane and Deal were caught in a hurricane and separated; Vane was wrecked on an uninhabited island. When English ships arrived to collect water near the island, Vane tried to join one of the crews under a false name. He was recognized by an old acquaintance, and arrested. Vane was taken to Spanish Town, Jamaica and held in prison for some time. On 22 March 1721, he was tried for piracy and found guilty. Vane learned that Deal had been tried, convicted, and hanged some time earlier. Vane was sentenced to death, and on 29 March he was hanged at Gallows Point in Port Royal. His corpse was hung in chains at Gun Cay. In popular culture W. Morgan Sheppard portrayed Vane in the 1999 family film Treasure of Pirate's Point.

In the game, Vane is portrayed as rude, foul-mouthed, and self-centered, but despite this, he becomes a friend and ally of protagonist Edward Kenway and one of the co-leaders of the Pirate Republic in Nassau. Following the Republic's collapse, Vane and Kenway team up to search for the Observatory, which the latter believes will enrich them, only to end up marooned together on an island following a mutiny staged by Vane's quartermaster, Jack Rackham. During their time on the island, Vane is driven insane, to the point he tries to kill Kenway, who defeats and subsequently abandons him. In a later mission, Kenway can encounter Vane in prison, revealing that the latter was captured and sentenced to death. Though he considers saving him, Kenway
