Key Largo

Designed by Glen-L Marine

A 19 ft 1 in, or 20 ft, sport-utility barrelback mahogany runabout from Glen-L Marine on the proven Barrelback 19 hull, with one big open cockpit instead of two, easier motor access and room for skis and fishing gear. The same cold-molded wood, plywood and veneer construction and the same barrelback stern. Glen-L publish a beam of 6 ft 1 in and a draft of 17 in.

The bare hull comes out at about 875 lb. They put the usual load at 5 people. Well suited to the average do-it-yourself builder, and the same long finishing stage as any bright-finished classic. Budget 900 to 1,600 hours. Measured medians from logged builds appear below.
