Bredenhof
''Bredenhof'', VOC ''Bredenhof'', was a Dutch East Indiaman transport ship that foundered on a reef 120 miles south of Mozambique and only 13 miles off the African coast, near the Cape of Good Hope, on 6 June 1753. The loss of the ''Bredenhof'' on her third voyage to the East Indies was meticulously recorded in the Dutch archives. ==History== With a crew composed of about 250 men, the ''Bredenhof'' left Rammekens, Zeeland on the morning of 31 December 1752, heading for Ceylon in the Indian Ocean. But due to the weather conditions and the problems on the journey, by the time they arrived at the Cape 6 men were dead and 9 very sick. Two weeks after setting sail from the Cape to Ceylon they ran into treacherous waters and the ''Bredenhof'' was wrecked on a reef. Capt. Jan Nielsen's orders were to throw all the silver bars overboard so that it could not be plundered by any member of the crew, although part of the gold was taken ashore.
