Hooploper op die skip Mentor
Ek vermoed dat hierdie rekord nie "ons" Cornelis betref nie, maar vir die sekerheid plaas ek dit hier. Cornelis was in Oktober 1777 slegs 10 jaar oud, wat hom báie jonk maak vir 'n hooploper. Dit is egter nie ontmoontlik nie - aldus Cornelis self het hy in 1779 (dus met 12) by die VOC aangesluit. Die enigste rekords wat ek kon vind is egter 1777 of 1780 en by geen van die twee is dit duidelik of dit wel of nie die korrekte Cornelis is nie, dus plaas ek beide hier met nota's.)
Aldus die bron het hierdie betrokke Cornelis van Dijk op 27 Mei 1778 aan die Kaap in diens van die V.O.C. getree (op land).

Beroep 1779 Netherlands 
Hooploper (by kamer Amsterdam)
Aldus die bron - Requesten or Memorials (sien bronne) het Cornelis in 1779 in diens van die Kompanjie getreë as hooploper. Die inligting word gegee in 'n verslag van 'n versoek van Cornelis aan die Kompanjie in 1793.
Ek het geen rekord kon vind van 'n Cornelis van Dijk wat in 1779 in diens van die V.O.C. getree het as hooploper nie.
As hy wel in diens was van die VOC, sou dit byna seker vir die Kamer Amsterdam gewees het - al sy ander indiensnemings was by hulle.
Beroep 7 Jan 1780 Netherlands 
Matroos op die skip Batavia
Hier is weer 'n rekord waarvan ek nie seker is of dit die regte Cornelis is nie - Cornelis van Dijk was 'n algemene naam en Amsterdam 'n groot plek.
Daar is egter 'n paar leidrade wat my laat dink dit is moontlik die korrekte persoon.
Die rede vir "uitdiensttreding" word gee as "absent bij afvaart". Dit kan beteken dat hy nie opgedaag het toe die skip vertrek het nie, óf dat hy op 'n ander skip geplaas is, óf dat daar besluit is dat hy nie geskik is om saam te gaan nie.
Gesien dat die VOC in hierdie tyd reeds baie verswak het, spekuleer ek dat hulle miskien makliker anderkant toe gekyk het as jong seuns wou aansluit. Dit kan wees dat die persoon wat op die dag by die skip gestaan het toe tog besluit het dat hierdie jong laatie nie saam mag gaan nie. Of hulle het hom op 'n ander skip geplaas. Of het sy ouers hom teengehou. Of, of, of - daar is baie redes waarom die wel die korrekte Cornelis is, wat bloot nie op daardie dag met hierdie skip gereis het nie.

Hooploper op die skip Zeepaard
Hier is weer 'n rekord met "absent bij afvaart" as rede vir uitdienstreding. Saam met die ander, skep dit wel 'n bietjie die beeld van 'n jong seun wat kanse probeer vat waar hy dit kry - maar dat as die groot dag aanbreek, hy óf nie op die boot toegelaat word nie, óf iemand anders hom teenhou.
Ek is hier wel seker dat, indien dit ons Cornelis betref, hy heel waarskynlik nie saamgegaan het nie (i.p.v. op 'n ander skip geplaas is) - hy sou moeilik betyds teruggewees het vir sy volgende reis van Nederland na Suid-Afrika in April 1783 (en vir laasgenoemde reis is ons wel seker dat hy op die skip geklim het).

Beroep 3 Apr 1783 Netherlands 
Konstabelsmaat op die skip Gerechtigheid
Hier verskyn weereens 'n vreemde aantekening in die skeepsoldyboek (sien afbeelding) wat ek nog nie 100% kon ontsyfer en vertaal het nie. Dit moet wel duidelik wees dat Cornelis tydens sommige van hierdie "het hy of het hy nie"-reise meegemaak het - teen 1788 was hy reeds aangestel as kaptein-luitenant van die Duifje.
Ek vermoed dat hy hierdie reis wel meegemaak het, al was dit slegs gedeeltelik. Een van die redes hiervoor is dat die ander konstabelsmaat op die skip, Johan David Piton (uit Mannheim, Duitsland) goeie vriende geword het met Cornelis. Hy sou later een van die getuies wees by die doop van Cornelis se eerste kind.

Sousluitenant (derde waak)
Die derde waak is die persoon wat derde verantwoordlik is vir die navigasie. Daar kon meerdere persone op dieselfde skip wees met hierdiede funksie.
Aldus die bron het Cornelis weer met die skip teruggereis na Nederland.
Beroep 14 Mei 1788-15 Sep 1788 Texel, Netherlands 
Luitenant (onderstuurman) op die skip Duifje
Hierdie tog het van Texel, Nederlands tot aan die Kaap gegaan (en nie verder geseil na Indonesië nie).
Volgens VOCsite.nl, het die Duifje eers weer in 1791 vanaf die Kaap terug na Texel geseil: https://tinyurl.com/yda2ojqp

Kaptein-Luitenant op die skip Duifje
Terwyl die Duifje aan die Kaap geanker was, het die hawemeester voorgestel dat Cornelis van Dijk aangestel word as die Kaptein-Luitenant van die skip.
Cornelis sou egter nie weer met die Duifje vaar nie, en het in 1790 met die Meerwijk na Nederland teruggekeer.
Ander 1 Jan 1790-4 Mei 1790 Netherlands 
Reis terug na Nederland
Cornelis van Dijk het met die skip Meerwijk terug na Nederland gereis. Dit wil nie voorkom asof hy enige rang aan boord van hierdie skip gehad het nie.
Beroep 3 Jun 1791-9 Nov 1791 South Africa 
Kaptein-Luitenant (opperstuurman) van die Arend
Cornelis het aan die Kaap afgeklim en nie die tweede helfte van die tog na Batavia meegemaak nie.

Ander 30 Apr 1793 Cape Town, Cape, South Africa 
Versoek aan die Raad in Kaapstad
Die skip Sterreschans was byna aan die Kaap, waarna dit verder sou gaan na Batavia. Cornelis het die raad versoek om hom aan te stel as kaptein van die skip en ook toestemming gevra om sy vrou, Catharina Pieterse, met hom na Batavia te neem.
Dit wil lyk of die Raad hiermee ingestem het. Die Sterreschans het egter minder as 'n maand later, op 20 Mei 1793 aan die kus van Kaap gestrand.
Ander 25 Jun 1793 Cape Town, Cape, South Africa 
Versoek aan die raad
Cornelis het die raad versoek om die transportgeld wat hy vir Anna Catharina Pietersz. se reis na Batavia betaal het, aan hom terug te betaal.
Ander 18 Jul 1793 Cape Town, Cape, South Africa 
Na die Sterreschans skipbreuk gely het, het Cornelis siek geword. Hy betreur dat hy nou sonder werk en in armoede gelaat is. Hy versoek die Kompanjie om hom weer in diens te neem, met die rang "Kaptein ter See".
Dit wil lyk asof die Raad hom tegemoetgekom het.
Beroep 30 Nov 1793 Cape Town, Cape, South Africa 
Gesaghebber van pakketboot "Ster"/"Star"
Dit is nie duidelik of Cornelis as Gesaghebber met die boot geseil het nie. Die laaste togte van die skip is as volg:
Die skip het Nederland op 9 April 1793 verlaat en op 7 Julie 1793 aan die Kaap geland. (Cornelis het op die 18de Julie die Raad gevra om hom weer in diens te neem.)
Op 4 Augustus het die outoriteite die Ster na Delagoabaai gestuur, om te soek na die vermiste skip Demerary. Die Engelse het egter die Ster ingeneem (waarskynlik tydens hierdie tog, alhoewel dit nie uitdruklik vermeld word nie).
Sou Cornelis ten tye hiervan op die skip gewees het? Dit is nie duidelik nie.
Beroep 20 Jun 1794 Cape Town, Cape, South Africa 
Ontslag van die VOC
Cornelis het aansoek gedoen om ontslaan te word as aanvoerder van die skip "De Star" en het toestemming gevra om saam met sy vrou terug te keer Europa toe, met behoud van sy loon.
Beroep 1804 Georgetown, Guyana
Teen 1804 was Cornelis reeds 'n handelaar wat goedere vanuit Engeland na Guyana (toe die kolonies Demerary en Essequibo) in Suid-Amerika vervoer het.
Na die opheffing van die V.O.C. is dit moontlik dat Cornelis vir die Britse East India Company of 'n ander handelsmaatskappy gaan werk het
Sy gesin was teen hierdie tyd waarskynlik woonagtig in Londen, Engeland.
Beroep ± Jun 1804-Jul 1804 Georgetown, Guyana
Kommandant van die skip Sir John Borlase Warren
Uit die veilingsadvertensies, weet ons dat Cornelis die kaptein/kommandant van die skip Sir John Borlase Warren was in 1804.
Kaptein/kommandant is ook range in die Engelse marine. Dit is nie duidelik of met "commander" in die veilingsberigte verwys word na die Britse rang nie, en of dit slegs gebruik word as algemene term om aan te dui dat Cornelis in beheer van die skip was.
Die skip Sir John Borlase Warren is ook gebruik om in 1806 die Kaapse Kolonie aan te val. Cornelis was nie deel van hierdie aanval nie.

Kaptein/meester van die snou Hercules
Uit die veilingsadvertensies leer ons dat Cornelis in April 1806 in beheer van die snou Hercules was. 'n Snou is 'n soort skip. In sommige berigte word daar na die Hercules as 'n brik verwys, wat moontlik was aangesien die ontwerp van beide mettertyd sodanig verander het, dat daar sterk ooreenkomste was. Sulke skepe was 'n "snou-brik" genoem, maar later het die term "snou" in onbruik verval en is slegs "brik" gebruik.
