Tahoe 19
Designed by Glen-L Marine
A 19 ft 2 in classic mahogany runabout from Glen-L Marine in the late-1950s to early-1960s idiom: lean lines, rolled funnel deck edges, a forward-inclined transom and a raked double-curvature clipper bow, with more bow flare and a more sophisticated bottom than earlier classics so it takes bigger motors. Cold-molded wood and epoxy planking.
Built the same amateur-proven way as all Glen-L's classic runabouts, with no steam bending, rabbets or lofting. Budget 1,000 to 1,800 hours with a bright finish. Measured medians from logged builds appear below.
What building a Tahoe 19 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.
