I've been searching this forum and have not come up with a satisfactory answer yet, so I am going to try and ask straight up in hopes of getting...
Barry, thanks for your response. I appreciate your taking the time to provide the useful advice. I do recall reading something about a distance...
Paul, thanks for the response. After your's, Phil's, and Ike's comments, I am in agreement that an open fore and aft bracing under the sole is the...
Thanks for the additional response Phil. And thanks Ike for the original response. The plan is to have an encapsulated, carpeted plywood sole, so...
So if I were to go with the idea represented by the drawing in the photo, it would be best to provide cross compartment ventilation. I suppose...
I guess I am not too good at keeping this updated. The build has advanced past the flipping the hull stage and I have been working on the interior...
First off, before I say anything, please forgive me if I say something ignorant. I am building a 21 foot wooden cabin cruiser (I have another...

Since the last time I posted to this thread, I have completed the transom, installed the keel, and am now working on the chines. You can see all...
You might consider cold mold technology for the sides. You can get most curved shapes this way and then laminate a mahogany veneer over the...
Made a fair bit of progress over the last week. I'll be ready to encapsulate the interior surface of the transom tomorrow. Exterior is going to be...
Thanks for the compliments on the boat. Progress has been fairly slow for the last month primarily due to the cold weather we are getting this...
More Transom work well, I've been very busy outside of boat work, then it got cold, and then I got sick. But, progress has begun again and I've...
Transom has been epoxied and screwed together. I have a bit of clean up to do and I want to install two gussets on the inside corners. Then some...
The gussets are 3/8" plywood. You might be thinking of the one's that have a mahogany veneer. This is for decorative purposes only as these are...
It's funny, but I never even heard of Glen L until 2010 when I happened to accidentally find them in a web search. I've wanted to build a...
