The Voyage to Norway in September to November 1653

I am in the process of researching the fleet that was sent to Norway, under the command of Witte de With. A large number of ships, many from the East India Company, were in Norway, waiting for an escort to sail for home. The government decided to dispatch a large fleet of 70 warships and two provision fluits to bring in the merchant fleet. Witte de With warned against sending out the fleet, due to his concerns about the weather. In the event, he was right to be concerned, as the fleet was hit by a severe storm off the Texel, and many ships were lost, the equivalent of losing a battle. I am in the process of compiling the list of ships and captains. I hope to get a copy of a list from the Nationaal Archief that seems to have a complete list: "Lijste van onse presente schepen en hoe langh deselve noch gevictualieert sijn" (R. A., Holland, 1830 a; L.A. 5546 I).
