Glen-L 11
Designed by Glen-L Marine
An 11 ft 2 in round-bottomed sailing dinghy from Glen-L Marine with an interchangeable cat or sloop rig on the same spar. The hull is a sandwich: cheap pine sawn into thin strips, bent over temporary forms, then glassed both sides into a one-piece shell. Light-air performance and rowing are both good because of the round bilge.
A step up from sheet plywood, and a small-scale way to learn strip-and-glass work before a bigger boat. Budget 150 to 250 hours including fairing and the rig. Median hours from logged builds appear below.
What building a Glen-L 11 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.
