Dutch ..... Een zeilschip voor vervoer van goederen en personen en nadien terugkeert naar het land van herkomst, te situeren van het einde van de 16de eeuw tot het einde van de 18de eeuw. Wegens het belang van de diensten die deze boten hadden, werd dit scheepstype vaak uitgerust voor zware bewapening. Herhaaldelijk werd dit type vaartuig ook als oorlogsschip ingezet.
