This is an ongoing discussion about 17th Century naval wargaming (really, 1620-1720). Part of what is offered are scenarios for games: orders-of-battle, ship lists, battle descriptions, and scenarios for Age of Sail II-Privateers Bounty (a sailing warfare computer simulation/game), suitable scaled for that environment.

Dutch Captain: Jacob Claeszoon Boot (or Boet)
Jacob Claeszoon Boot (or Boet) served the Monnikendam Directors. He probably commanded the ship Leeuwin (32 guns and a crew of 115 men). The guns consisted of 4 brass and 28 iron guns. In June, he served with the fleet during June to August 1652, and was on the voyage to the Shetlands. He took part in the council of war on 6 August on board the Brederode. He also fought in the Battle of Dungeness on 10 December 1652 and the Battle of Portland on 28 February to 2 March 1653. Sources:
