Abstract
Cape harbour and port developments have, until recently, been a largely neglected field of study. In Die Nederlandse Kommisarisse and Die 18-de Eeuwee Samelewing aan die Kaap, Dr A Boëseken referred only briefly to harbour developments under the Dutch East India Company, while Professor Marous Arkin's work on the English East India Company, John Company at the Cape, a history of the agency under Pringle (1794-1815) based on a study of the Cape of Good Hope Factory Records, gave no attention to the development of Table Bay, and C.J. de Villier's study of Die Britse Vloot aan die Kaap, 1795-1803, did not advert to the subject.
