Vigilant

Designed by Glen-L Marine

A 42 ft fishing trawler and workboat from Glen-L Marine with an 850 cu ft hold for an 8 to 10 ton load, 700 gallons of fuel and 10 knots on a single 145 hp diesel. Aimed at the amateur or a small yard: multi-diagonal plywood or solid wood over heavy frames and longitudinals, glass-sheathed, or one-off fiberglass.

A commercial-scale hull. Expect 5,000 hours or more. Real hours from logged builds appear below.
