The Yeoman & Kinsman are very similar in many respects. Both boats are made using the same hull, deck and nearly all-internal moulds. From the outside they look the same and both have the same sail area and rig. The main difference is that the Yeoman has a fixed keel and the Kinsman is a lift keel trailer sailor.
