Hercules
Designed by Glen-L Marine
A 24 ft 1 in trailerable semi-displacement cruising yacht from Glen-L Marine with standing headroom throughout, a forward head with shower, a real pilothouse with sliding door, and 600 miles of diesel range at 7 knots on about 10 hp. Sleeps two adults and two children; plywood on frame with a bulbous forefoot.
An unusually economical big-boat build for a family on a budget. Budget 1,200 to 2,000 hours over two to four years. Real hours from logged builds show below.
What building a Hercules 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.
