Glen L 10
Description
The Glen-L 10, a nimble 10-foot stitch-and-glue plywood pram designed by Glen L. Witt in the early 1960s and offered through Glen-L Marine Designs, stands as one of the firm's most accessible and enduring beginner boatbuilding projects—a lightweight, stable tender or sailing dinghy perfect for lakes, ponds, or as a yacht auxiliary in calm waters. Measuring 10 feet LOA with a 4-foot 6-inch beam and 6-inch draft (flat bottom with slight V-entry forward), it displaces just 85 pounds (no ballast), making it car-toppable, cartoppable, or towable behind a bicycle, and easily handled by one adult or two children.

Sailrite does its best to publish accurate dimensions, but we often find it worthwhile to have our customers measure their boats carefully before we produce kits for them. You should take the same precautions, especially when the data is not from Sailrite. The information on this site is not guaranteed to be accurate.
