Glen-L Squirt Project Photos

Hi,

I built the Glen-L squirt (a 10 foot mahogany runabout).
I made a website showing construction photos from start to finish.

You can check it out at sum-it.biz/squirt/website/ (website no longer active)

It was a great boat to build and Glen-L are good people to deal with!

Hi David,

That looks like a beautiful little boat, being made out of wood it looks absolutely gorgeous.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Cian

Nice looking boat, mate. The decking really looks the business!

Where are you in Ireland?

Aha. So which lough were these photos taken?

I live on the banks of Strangford Lough myself, just crying out for a home-build.

Dave its Lough Sillan in Shercock Co. Cavan. Its a nice size lake, about 1 1/2 miles long.
I'm hoping to build another boat soon, maybe the "Overniter" from Glen-L.

Ref Overniter

Rudderman, if you are seeking something interesting to build, check out this site:-

http://www.stevproj.com/

Go to the bottom left of the page and click on "pocket yachts".

These are nice home builds.

Yeah they look like nice boats. I'm not particularly into sail power though, I'm more of an outboard-man! I'm on the lookout for a nice compact power cruiser, something in the 18 foot range for use on the river shannon....and also something that wouldnt be afraid of a little coastal trip!
