Dutch navy shipyard at Onrust, Dutch East Indies according to the Colonial account of 1886
The navy shipyard on the island Onrust, Dutch East Indies had less works in 1885 as the navy yard at Surabaya, Dutch East Indies. Totally of day services:
Free men: Craftsman 68.325 and coolies 37.657.
Forced labourers: craftsman 84.955 and coolies 2.231
Totally; crafts and 84.955 and coolies 39.999.
Wages:
Paid to the free men ƒ 186.403,00
Value services of forced labourers ƒ 15.519,00
Totally 201.922,00
Value of used material ƒ 134.025.
Overtime money 6.377
Medium daily wages ƒ 1,76.
Task work ƒ 11.149.
Among the free men were Chinese and natives and in the ateliers worked also some Europeans.
It was not difficult to obtain enough labourers although more skilled stokers and bench hands always were welcome. The number of deaths was quite lower as the year below 53 instead of the 94 in 1884/ This shipyard was mostly used for repairing 8 ships belonging to the auxiliary squadron, 15 of the Indies squadron, 9 of the government navy, 1 steam launch, 1 buoy layer, 10 private ships,2 hipper barges, 1 steam dredger and 3 Russian warships. Further more were 8 launches made and worked for ships in service or the storehouses and harbour departments. The 5.000 tons dry dock was less used compared to 1883-1884 and was in April 1886 brought to the dock pit at Surabaya to be inspected, repaired and painted. The buildings were in good condition with the quads intensively repaired and could be used for several years to come.. The coal shads on the island Kuiper required a lot of maintenance work.

Dutch parliament member Ter Bruggen Hugenholtz asking on 25 November 1859 several questions about shipbuilding program for the Dutch East Indies
During a discussion with the Dutch minister of colonies Rochussen (1) asked parliament member Ter Bruggen Hugenholtz (1) what the intention of the minister was with the steamships built or being built and which were to replace the former Civil Navy. He did not deny the probably huge value of ships of such kind for the Dutch East Indies. However replacing the civil navy by steamships would urge huge expenses. He wonder if the minister discussed this with his counterpart of the navy. The navy was now building steam flotilla vessels which would be used in the Dutch territorial waters and in the colonies! He expected that vessels with a double use would be more expensive and in many ways inefficient. So if the minister of colonies intended to built some of these vessels he would like to hear this to be able to value future plans of the minister of navy. The minister of colonies knew that Ter Brugge Hugenholtz was interested in the navy and supplied more details There were in the Dutch East Indies 3 small ships with a shallow draught of djati wood built of a design which was expected to full fill all he needs in the colony and which was already proved. The engines were built in the Netherlands. In the Netherlands were as an experiment two ships of iron built with a very swallow draught comparable in some manner with the ships built by Rennie at London for the Spanish government on the Philippines for the war against Annam. In stead of a screw the Dutch vessels were fitted out with paddles, thicker hull plates to obtain a longer service and instead of none rigging some rigging to be used in emergency or with a favourable wind. Finally was as an experiment a small steamship built of steel to be used as patronesses (kruisboot). The results of these experiments were awaited especially for the iron built ships. If successful could the number of civil schooners and the number of dug-out canoes (in the meantime increased to 70) be decreased. This plan was expensive and influenced the positive balance.

The sailing ships of the government navy in the Dutch East Indies according to the Parliament Papers of 1880
An item discussed the sailing ships of the government navy although without supplying abundant details. The buoy layer of Batavia was in quite well condition. A second one for Riouw was now being built with a so-called kruisboot temporarily was used for this purpose. The strength of 51 kruisboten was reduced to 49. Three were added to the fleet namely the as steam ship condemned Bennett and 2 boast until then kept in conservation. On the other hand were 5 boats stricken, 3 permanently and 2 which worth to be repaired. Temporarily. One reserve boat temporarily commissioned for survey duties in the fairways of Surabaya just was done in 1877 with 2 other boats of the reserve. Since 1 September 1879 were these boats no longer needed and again laid up in conservation. In fact was at the end of 1878 a strength needed of 64 kruisboten however on 31 December 1879 were there 63 while one of the boats used to support the resident of Japara was called back. On both time points was the navy so lacking respectively 13 and 14 of those small sailing vessels. In 1879 was also decided that the two boats used for the residence (station) Riouw were no longer to be armed but just advice boats. The strength had to be 49 armed and 14 advice boats of which on 31 December were available respectively 39 and 10 boats.

Dutch navy lacking enough skilled native sailors according to the Parliament Papers of 1880
In the account was the lacking of enough trained and skilled native sailors discussed. So were 62 native non-commissioned officers and corporals needed. The training of native sailors in the Archipelago was a problem. The warships were based at one station and the European personnel usually lacked enough knowledge of the Malayan language. Native non-commissioned officer became in this manner for the training and they were lacking any regalement in a for them understandable language. Skilled sailors 1st and 2nd class were also hard to find while many of them had in not interest in serving longer caused by the stricter demands of the new regalement or wanted to work as stokers. With the Dutch Indies civil government was now deliberated how these problems could be solved to obtain a better school c.q. training system. One option was to create training possibilities on board of the guard ships.(1)
