Mark Twain Series
Designed by Glen-L Marine
Glen-L Marine's pontoon houseboats in four lengths from 28 to 40 ft, on light catamaran hulls of bulkhead frames and sheet plywood with fine bows and a minimum of bending. The deckhouse is independent of the hull, built from ordinary lumber, plywood and aluminum sheet, and every set of plans includes full-size patterns for the hull framing.
Simple construction, but there is a great deal of it at 28 ft and above. Budget 800 to 2,000 hours depending on length. Real hours from logged builds show below.
What building a Mark Twain Series 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.
