The Navigation Acts occured throughout the late 17th century. If America was to trade with another foreign country i.e. The Netherlands, Scotland, etc. they would first have to give some of the traded profit to the British, because Great Britain allowed America to use their ships. There were 6 acts in total, the first being in 1651 and the last occurring in 1663.
