A running commentary on the building of a Glen - L designed runabout. The design is called a Monaco, and is reminiscent of the power boats of the 1920's and 30's. It is a little over 19' and made using the "Cold Moulding" process. This photo shows a Monaco similar to what I am building. This one was built by Rich Coey and is a beautiful example. For more photos have a look on the links page.

Frame 6 complete
Over the last week or so I have completed frame 6. It has turned out a lot better than the first two. I have made a lot of progress in my techniques for laying out the patterns, creating my gussets etc
It will still need a lick with the sander, but not by much.
This week I will start in frame 2, as it's the last one that I have a complete set of components for. I still need to manufacture the deck beams for all the rest.
