The National Archive of Indonesia published on her website tables of
contents of the so-called Daghregisters (Daily accounts) of the Castle Batavia,
HR no.2518. Unfortunately they are in Dutch. In those tables you can find for
instance information about the ships arriving at and departing from Batavia
(nowadays Djakarta). I extracted the movements of the ships and vessels owned
by the E.I.C. The dates mentioned below in the text are the register dates. See
also on this weblog the notes dealing with cargo capacities and individual
ships.
