Cort Sivertsen Adeler (16 December 1622 – 5 November 1675), known in Denmark as Coort Sifvertsen Adelaer, in The Netherlands as Koert Sievertsen Adelaer and in Italy as Curzio Suffrido Adelborst, was the name of honour given to Kurt Sivertsen, a Norwegian seaman, who rendered distinguished service to the Danish and Dutch navies, and also to the Republic of Venice against the Turks.〔(''Cort Adeler – utdypning'' (Store norske leksikon) )〕 ==Early naval career== Cort Sivertsen was born in Brevik, Norway, the son of a shipper. At the age of fifteen he took service with the Dutch navy; in 1639 he fought under Lieutenant-Admiral Maarten Tromp at the Battle of the Downs. In 1642 he was first mate on the ''Grote St. Joris'', a Dutch ship hired by the fleet of Venice as the ''San Giorgio Grande''. Sivertsen called himself ''Adelborst'' in this period, a Dutch name meaning "cadet". In 1645 he became captain of the ''San Giorgio'' and entered full Venetian service. In 1650 the ''San Giorgio'' became a flagship and Sivertsen therefore flag captain. In an action against the Turkish fleet on 13 May 1654 near the Dardanelles he broke with his ship a line of Turkish galleys and sank fifteen of them; next day the Turkish garrison of Tenedos surrendered to him. For this he was knighted in the Order of San Marco; the Venetian senate rewarded him with an annuity of 1400 golden ducats. In 1660 he was made Vice-Admiral.〔(''Adeler, Cort Sivertsen, 1622-75, Admiral'' (Dansk biografisk Lexikon) )〕
