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.

A straightforward plywood build with one clever trick. Budget 250 to 400 hours. Measured medians from logged builds appear below.
