CS-20
Designed by Glen-L Marine
A 19 ft 10 in stitch-and-glue outboard cabin cruiser from Glen-L Marine, an enlarged and refined Cabin Skiff with a slightly deeper vee, full standing headroom at the bridge and the popular recessed deck. Berths for two, outboards from 40 to 175 hp. The hull forms around a permanent bulkhead in a patterned cradle, so no building form is needed. Glen-L publish a beam of 8 ft 4 in and a hull depth of 3 ft 0 in.
The bare hull comes out at about 650 lb. Headroom below is 4'-6". The hull is a vee bottom, developed for sheet plywood, intended for Stitch-n Glue construction. They draw a matching trailer for her. Stitch and glue at this size is a real project but not a difficult one. Budget 400 to 700 hours. Real hours from logged builds are below.
What building a CS-20 actually takes
Medians from the build logs kept on this site, not the designer’s estimate. Nobody has logged this boat here yet, so they are empty until the first builder does.
Those medians firm up as more people log this boat.
