A piece of information from Dr. Elias about Directors' ships
Dr. Elias, in Vol.II of Schetsen uit de geschiedenis van ons zeewezen, says that Directors' ships were intended to carry a crew of 85 officers and sailors and 25 soldiers, for a total crew of 110 men. That was the crew size for a large number of ships, so we now have a good idea of how many soldiers were intended to be carried. I had not seen a figure for Directors' ships before this.
