I wasn't thinking clearly. Carl Stapel reminded me, after I had also realized that the Hazewind jacht was probably the jacht also called Windhond. I have seen several sets of dimensions for the Windhond. They all differ on the hold depth:
The jacht Windhond (or Hasewindt)
Dimensions (Amsterdam feet):
115ft x 23ft x 10-1/2ft
10-1/3ft
or 10-3/4ft
or even larger at 116ft x 24ft
18 guns:
March 1653: 4-8pdr, 12-4pdr, and 2-3pdr
April 1655: 4-8pdr, 12-4pdr, and two drakes (probably 3pdr)
