My current, best estimate of the 40 ships funded at the Peace in 1648

I am working on a complete listing of Dutch ships in the First Anglo-Dutch War, with the ships divided into categories with respect to how they were funded. I desire to use this in my all-encompassing book project: Dutch Ships in Various Operations in the First Anglo-Dutch War. This is my tentative list, including the 41st convoyer that Dr. Elias says was in service in 1652. It relies heavily upon my previous work and input from Carl Stapel, as well as Vreugdenhil's list:
