Notes for Mathias Botman:
1. Matt was the youngest merchant marine captain with KPM (Koninklijke P Maatschappij) and worked in South-East Asia. Whenever he was in Singapore he was invited to the Director's home and there he met Suus Botman. Twice he porposed to her but was rejected by her.
2. "Bij fotograaf in de etalage, Suus weg bij de fotograaf".
3. The captain gets to keep part of the freight and is required to sail a specific route. On one trip Matt stayed too long in one place and to make up time he skipped the next island port. He was summoned to the court of shipping which would decide if he was going to lose his captain license. He did not have an attorney and represented himself and won. This same trip Matt was given a painting of Ambon made by an American passenger who sailed on board for two months. Koen Witteveen now has the painting.
