Fisherman

Designed by Glen-L Marine

A 13 ft outboard utility boat from Glen-L Marine for fishing and watersports, with a generous vee for a soft ride, flare to the transom for a dry one, and a forefoot and skeg that track well at trolling speed. Vee-bottomed sheet plywood, about 275 lb, outboards to 45 hp. Glen-L publish a beam of 5 ft 9 in.

They put the usual load at 1 to 4 people. The hull is a vee bottom hard chine developed for sheet plywood planking. They draw a matching trailer for her. Within the reach of a first-time builder on a tight budget. Budget 150 to 280 hours. Real hours from logged builds are below.
