Ah, but he does fight the Corsairs in Umbar at a different time. It's one of my favourite Appendix stories (and unlike some others *coughPJandcocough* I can actually provide a quotation):

Quote:
At last [Aragorn/Thorongil] got leave of the Steward and gathered a small fleet, and he came to Umbar unlooked for by night, and there burned a great part of the ships of the Corsairs. He himself overthrew the Captain of the Haven in battle upon the quays, and then withdrew his fleet with small loss.
