They only seem to be scarcely documented, but there are some keel lengths known for Dutch warships. They seem known for more ships built from the 1680's and beyond. Ron van Maanen has some of them in his long document:
Adm Ship Date Length Keel Length Length to Keel
A Argo 1772 149ft-9in 140ft-2in 1.0688
N Arnhem 1693 145ft 123-1/2ft 1.174
A Beemster Koe 1686 138ft 115ft 1.2
N Beschermer 1690 170ft 146-1/4ft 1.1624
