Just to confuse matters more: Hendrick de Raedt's list

To further confuse the picture, Hendrick de Raedt's list calls the following Amsterdam warships States' ships:
Ship     Commander            Guns Crew
a ship   Abraham van der Hulst  26 100
Star     Jacob Paulusz Cort     28  95
Campen   Joris van der Zaan     38 130
Two of these appaer in the document from the Wrangel Collection, and are said to be hired for a specified cost. I would have guessed that Abraham van der Hulst's ship was hired, as there seem to be no States' ship that would have been available for him to command.
