sources edit
This article cites no sources, and no information is to be found on it. It also was written by someone with a poor grasp of English and absolutely no clue about naval warfare of any period. I move for deletion.
- It is clearly not the case that this was the largest naval battle of the C17th, and a cursory glance at the wikipedia articles on the Four Days Fight, or any other battle of any of the Anglo-Dutch Wars proves this. No sources are quoted, and the obvious inaccuracies lead me to doubt the more ambiguous assertions. I agree with the previous comment, and suggest deletion.

As for the Dutch depredations along the coast of Fukien in the 1 620's and early 1630's, the 'Red-haired barbarians' were effectively chased away and in 1633 soundly beaten at Liaolo by the legendary smuggler- turned-admiral, Zheng Zhilong.
