Bear Cat Cuddy
Designed by Glen-L Marine
A 27 ft 10 in by 10 ft cuddy-cabin power catamaran from Glen-L Marine, the longer, wider sibling of the Wildcat with more displacement, tankage and load, on twin vee-bottomed planing hulls that take twin outboards to speeds in the 50 mph range. Sheet plywood over wood framing or welded aluminum with heavier scantlings; about 6,700 lb. Glen-L publish a hull depth of 5 ft 1 in and a draft of 14 in.
Displacement is 6700 lb. Amateur-proven methods, full-size patterns and no lofting. Budget 1,400 to 2,400 hours. Measured medians from logged builds appear below.
