The main impediment to building scenarios for the Second and Third Anglo-Dutch Wars is that we need to calculate burden and navigational drafts for Dutch ships. We have reasonably good data for the English, partly due to Frank Fox, and partly from Pepys' tables. There is also the table for 1689, reprinted by E. H. H. Archibald. He includes that as essentially all of Derrick's classic book (of which I have a very beat up copy, formerly belonging to the National Maritime Museum, but which they sold).
