Abstract This report explores a hypothesis that the Norman's Bay shipwreck is the Wapen van Utrecht, a 64‐gun Dutch ship lost during the Battle of Beachy Head in 1690. The shipwreck, found off the Sussex coast, was designated by the Protection of Wrecks Act (1973) in 2006, when it was speculated that the wreck was the English 70‐gun ship Resolution, lost in the Great Storm of 1703. Dendrochronology dates the vessel after the middle of the 17th century AD, however, with timbers from Germany or the Low Countries. Initiatives by the Nautical Archaeology Society to bring the protected wreck to a wide public are also discussed. 抽象 英国东萨塞克斯郡诺曼湾沉船:一艘可能参与比奇角海战的17世纪荷舰 本文着重探讨诺曼湾沉船即为乌德勒支武器号 (Wapen van Utrecht) 的这-假说。乌德勒支武器号是一艘拥有64门火炮的荷兰战舰, 1690年在比奇角海战中沉没。该沉船发现于萨塞克斯海岸。2006年, 由于此船被-为是在1703年大风暴中覆没的带有70门火炮的英船决心号 (Resolution) 而被纳入《沉船保护法案 (1973) 》。树木年轮测量将此船年代定为公元17世纪后半叶, 而且其船材来自于德国或其他低地国家。本文还会就海洋考古学会提出的将受保护的沉船介绍给更广泛的大众的倡议加以-论。 本文著重探討諾曼灣沈船即爲烏德勒支武器號 (Wapen van Utrecht) 的這一-說。烏德勒支武器號是一艘擁有64門火炮的荷蘭戰艦, 1690年在比奇角海戰中沉沒。該沉船發現于薩塞克斯海岸。2006年, 由于此船-認爲是在1703年大風暴中覆沒的帶有70門火炮的英船決心號 (Resolution) 而被納入《沉船-護法案 (1973) 》。樹木年輪測量將此船年代定爲公元17世紀後半葉, 而且其船材來-于德國或其他低地國家。本文還會就海洋考古學會提出的將受保護的沉船介紹給更廣泛的大衆的倡議加以-論。
