The Dutch sold New York and Hudson River colony to the British because the British were on both sides. If Portuguese settlement of Newfoundland and say lands around gulf started in the late 1490-1525 by Galicians /Asturians who being fisherman and whalers were left out of the souther and Asian adventures they could of expended into New England by 1600.Plymouth was settled in `1620, New York was settled in 1624. Unless you have the British lease the Dutch Plymouth colony it is definitely staying British.
thus with Portuguese to north and if Dutch still claim and settle in sane area any English settlement to the north be an enclave and it make sense that majority of English colonies be to south Dutch.
