Saboteer
Description
The Saboteer is a lightweight, versatile 9-foot-7-inch sail/row pram designed by Glen-L Marine, ideal for beginners, families, or as a tender. Introduced as part of their Series 700 small-boat lineup, it's an evolution of the smaller Sabotina, offering improved performance in sailing, rowing, or towing while maintaining easy portability and construction. With a vee-bottom hard-chine hull, it provides good stability and tracking, making it suitable for calm lakes, bays, or as a yacht tender. At just 100 lbs, it's easily cartopped, trailered, or stowed in a van/pickup, and its simple cat rig delivers responsive handling in light winds without complexity.
