Glen-L 12
Designed by Glen-L Marine
A 12 ft plywood sloop from Glen-L Marine sized for two adults and two children, stable enough for non-sailors and with 91 sq ft of sail for some pace. A few sheets of plywood and some lumber build it, and Glen-L sells hardware, rigging and sail kits to finish it.
Drawn as a beginner's boat to build and to sail, with full-size patterns. Allow 120 to 220 hours plus rigging. Measured build times from logs kept here appear below.
What building a Glen-L 12 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.
