The Zeeland ship Agatha
The Agatha was a ship originally belonging to the Hoorn Chamber of the VOC which served the Admiralty of Zeeland in 1665 and into 1666. The Agatha served as a three-masted jacht. In 1665, the Agatha was armed with 4-12pdr, 10-8pdr, 10-4pdr, 4-3pdr, 2-2pdr, and 2-1pdr guns. The Agatha was eventually sold to Denmark, probably in 1666. This is based on information from Ron van Maanen's unpublished manuscript "ZEELAND" (undated).
