Hamburg merchants who sailed with skipper Johan Borchers to Bodenstede to Hamburg: in response to Bremen complains, state that they have been forbidden to use the Icelandic harbours Stappe, Reff and Grundeforde in 1563 and Kummerwage in 1564, and therefore received permission from governour Pal Stigsson to trade in Bodenstede, and were not doing anything illegal.
