Along with the “Bok” there is found in Friesland, the _Snik_, which is
a “Bok” of less square build with a more sloping sternpost and stem.
In the province of Holland, the same difference from the “Bok” is noted
in the “_Harlemmermeerlompertje_” which is smaller than the “Frisian
Snik”.

Neither the name of “Snik” nor that of “Bok” is known in Groningen,
but there is in this region a boat of the same kind, with its bow and
stern a little fuller than those of the “Bok”. It is the _Groningen
aardappelpraam_ (Groningen potato pram) already met with. Like the
three preceding boats, its bends have a slight sheer. Its full bow and
stern differentiate it from the “Overijsselsche pramen”.
If we leave the Haarlem lake, passing by Leiden, that is to say: if
we cross the country of the downs going toward the West, we meet
everywhere a type of boat which, while smaller, is still shaped like
the “bokken”. This type as the “Westlander” (boat of the West) is its
representative.
