The National Squib was designed in 1968 by Oliver Lee, to meet the need for an inexpensive general purpose Sailing Keel Boat for strict one design club racing and family sailing. The underwater lines of the hull are as fine as possible to good performance in light airs and yet with its flared topside to a generous beam, combined with a ballast radion of 50%, gives ample stability and power to carry a full sail in the strongest of winds. The mast can be easily stepped and rigged by two persons, without crane aid.
Squibs can be easily towed behind the average family car on specially designed trailers.
At the start of a new century the Squib concept is as relevant today as it was nearly 40 years. The Squib has a strong, vibrant Class Owners Association; there are now nearly 850 boats built and over 30 established racing fleets.
