I am doing some work on William Petty.  I cannot find in my notes 
regarding a reference to the King mocking Petty late in his life on 
account of the sinking of his double bottomed boat. I know the story 
comes late in Strauss, William Petty: Portrait of a Genius but I do not 
have access to the book. Any help will be very much appreciated.
