The Brederode's armament

I have recently seen a number of gun lists, at different dates, for the Brederode. The Brederode was completed in 1645 and sunk at the Battle of the Sound in 1658.
25 March 1653  4-36pdr, 12-24pdr, 8-18pdr, 20-12pdr, and 10-6pdr
         1655  4-36pdr, 20-24pdr, 21-12pdr, and 10-6pdr
         1658  4-36pdr, 11-24pdr, 12-18pdr, 21-8pdr, and 9-6pdr
