| Description |
English: At Aceh, Van Spilbergen encountered an English fleet under the command of James Lancaster. This fleet intended to capture a Portuguese carrack that would make its annual journey from St. Thomé in India to Malacca. Van Spilbergen decided to join the English ambush. The combined fleets were successful at taking the Portuguese ship, which meant that Van Spilbergen obtained a share of the bounty, which included valuable Indian cloths.
