8 According to Carsten Bake, he received the licence for four years in 1583, after which it was granted to an Icelander. He subsequently received a licence for Hólmur. However, the licence for Flatey was issued to Páll Jónsson (the Icelander) in September 1589, which fits better with a request of
Hamburg merchants for a licence for Flatey in 1589, in which it is stated that Carsten Bake had been sailing to Flatey since 1586. 423 9 Renewal of a previous licence. (continued) 424

11 The harbours were combined because of the poor fish catches in the area. 12 A 1589 request for renewal of this licence states that the licence was valid for six years. This must be a misinterpretation by the scribe. 425 13 Two copies of this licence were issued. (continued) 426
