Giovanni Verrazzano was a Tuscan who sailed for the French in 1524. He was seeking the Northwest Passage. Later Henry Hudson explored the Hudson River in 1609. He claimed the land for the Dutch.
The explorer hired by the Dutch to find the Northwest Passage in 1609 was Henry Hudson. He sailed under the Dutch flag and explored the region around present-day New York and the Hudson River. Hudson's voyages contributed significantly to the European understanding of North America's geography and laid the groundwork for Dutch colonization in the area. Although he did not find the Northwest Passage, his explorations opened new trade routes and opportunities.
