Pieter Florissen (Floriszoon) was a Schout-bij-Nacht (Rear-Admiral) in May 1652. He was apparently with Tromp's fleet of 42 ships off Dover on 29 May 1652, when an impromptu battle was fought with the English, commanded by Robert Blake. We have Dr. Ballhausen's list in his book. What we really need is the list of signatories to the letter that Tromp wrote after the battle, as that would give us the definitive list. We do have lists for 30 June 1652 and the Battle of Dungeness on 10 December 1652. We do not have fleet organizations for the other lists that exist. This is the list of commanders and ships:
