Dutch inland small yacht Smit stationed at Bantam, Dutch East Indies in 1683

Well built of kiaten wood, still in good condition but needed some repairers as soon as possible to make using her in the waters off Malacca possible. Was in so-called ‘ hollow’ seas not really seaworthy. Of the Dutch East Indies Company.
