William Weet was an English privateer who appears to have been working with some Danish pirates on the ship Jupiter. They plundered another Englishman, John Delbritz' ship, the Aguila, in Lisbon in 1609. Weet brought some of the goods taken back to Norway and some to Amsterdam.Norske Rigsregistranter, vol.4 (1870), p.322.
