Nice mix of colors, very close.
Keep in mind that in those days they didn't have the colors we have today.
The yellow color was 'yellow ocre', was cheap to produce.
They had black, Blue, white. Red was a very expensive color (made from insects).
All other colors are expensive in those days and only used on the most luxury parts of the ships, Like the captains quarters.
Have a look at paintings of ships of those days, you will see that english, spanish, portugees, etc have all similar colors.
