Squib v Yoeman

   Having seen many Yeomans (or should I say Yeomen) at the Three Rivers Race on the Broads I thought I might like to compare it to a Squid.  However I can't find the dimensions on the Squid Association site and I can't find a Yeoman site at all.
If there is anybody who knows things like length, width, depth, height, weight and sail area I'd like to know.  I know the Squib has a fin keel and I'm assuming the same for the Yeoman since I also know there is a similar boat called a Kinsman which is not.

	Squib: http://www.noblemarine.co.uk/boats/dinghy/Squib/ Yeoman/Kinsman: http://www.noblemarine.co.uk/boats/dinghy/Yeoman/ http://www.ykboats.co.uk/Ykboats.htm Yeoman/and Kinsman share the same hull and sail plan but differ in keel configuration. AFAIK Yeoman/Kinsman are mostly found around the Norfolk broads area, Squib is more widespread.

	Squibs had 108 boats at the National Championships 2009! What comes close? This year it was won by a boat built in the late 70's Last year it was won by a boat built in the late 90's. How diverse is that!
