Nimrod

Designed by Glen-L Marine

A 15 ft outboard utility boat from Glen-L Marine whose seats fold forward and a section of cockpit floor lifts to form two bunks under the foredeck. A generous vee and lifted chines keep it dry; 6 ft beam, about 400 lb, outboards to 60 hp, a 4.5 by 9 ft cockpit. Glen-L publish a beam of 6 ft 0 in and a hull depth of 33 in.

They put the usual load at 1 to 4 people. The hull is a vee bottom hard chine developed for sheet plywood planking. They draw a matching trailer for her. A straightforward plywood build with one clever trick. Budget 250 to 400 hours. Measured medians from logged builds appear below.
