Zuytdorp

The VOC Zuytdorp also Zuiddorp (meaning 'South Village' after a still existing village in the South of Zeeland, near the Belgian border) was an 18th century trading ship of the Dutch East India Company (Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie, commonly abbreviated VOC). On 1 August 1711 it was dispatched from the Netherlands to the trading port of Batavia (now Jakarta, Indonesia) bearing a load of freshly minted silver coins.
