    1725 STERN 'DEN ARY" DUTCH EAST INDIAMAN SAILING MODEL
    This trading vessel, like all European
    merchantmen trading with the East Indies at
    that time, is rather like an 18th century man-
    of-war. Such East Indiamen carried guns
    and trained crews well able to fight, if
    necessary, and defend their rich cargoes of
    Eastern produce. The model, which is in a
    museum at Amsterdam, is made to a scale
    of one to 274, and is 76 inches from stem to
    stern. Over the lower tier of stern-lights the
    ships name and date are carved, and over
    the tiller-hole are the arms of Batavia, the
    seat of Dutch government in the East
    Indies. Besides her 54 great guns, she
    mounted swivel guns on her poop.
