In 1683 a list was made of the ships, vessels and so on, belonging to the Dutch East Company. For most of the ships was given an indication of her condition, sometimes what kind of ship, her measurement and the first time she was outward bound. I added to each vessels using other sources.
Classification ‘C’ just suitable for some time service of the East Coast of Java and comparable territories.
Fluyt Delfshaven (1), classification ‘C’, 1669 first outward bound, 350 last.
Maximum 1 or 2 years service, used to transport woodwork from Indermaijoe.
Fluyt Beemster (2), classification ‘C’, 1668 first outward bound 200 last.
Almost worn out (‘aff’), used to transport woodwork from Indermaijoe as long as possible.
Small yacht Casteel Rotterdam, 30 last.
Made of kiaten timber and just suitable for patrolling and as an advise vessel in the fairway of Soerabaja, due to the fact that her hold was much to small.
