Carl Stapel says that there were 15 Dutch ships operating in the Baltic in December 1652. He provided with the names of six Amsterdam Directors' ships that were there. There is also a list in The First Dutch War, Vol.III, that names some captains. Putting the two lists together, I have 11 of the 15 ships:
Adm Ship Guns Crew Captain
A-Dir Roosenboom 28 105 Gerrit Schuyt
A-Dir Vergulde Valck 28 105 Cornelis Jansz Brouwer
A-Dir Groote Vergulde Fortuijn 35 135 Frederick de Coninck
A-Dir Engel Gabriel 28 110 Bastiaen Bardoel
A-Dir Swarte Leeuw 30 130 Hendrick de Raedt
A-Dir Blauwe Arend 28 105 Dirck Pater
A Edam 28 100 Barent Cramer
A Brak 18 70 Pieter van Zalingen
A Dolphijn 26 95 Gerbrand Schatter
A Westfriesland 28 100 Hendrick Huyskens
A Phesant 32 120 Jan Jansz Lapper
