Build Your Dream Boat #1

Posted by Gayle Brantuk on Jul 15th 2010

We like to remind people that building a boat is not just another project, but a lifetime of memories the whole family can enjoy. Sounds nice, but how does that play out in real life? Here are the words of some of our clients that illustrate this point:

“My family and I would like to express deep gratitude for the chance to build something that was very meaningful in our young lives, something we probably could not have otherwise afforded. Thank you,” Glenn in Gualala, CA

“I just recently was very pleasantly surprised to discover your wonderful website and glad to see that Glen L is still going strong. I had built a Glen L boat about 35 years ago, as a father-son project with my father (now deceased) and I still have the boat and all the great memories that went along with it. Thanks”, John

So what is it that makes boatbuilding such a unique & fulfilling experience as opposed to just buying one?
  • You can build a boat with all of the features you want, not what the boat manufacturer decides you need. Plus, there is no comparison to the pride of being able to say, “I built it myself!”
  • Save up to 40-50% off the cost of a manufactured boat, if you can even find one that compares to your personalized creation.
  • Purchase materials as you need them, so you don’t need to shell out a huge chunk of change and then make payments, pay interest, etc—you know the drill.
  • Involve the kids, neighbors, friends and family—this can be a fun experience for everyone!
  • Finally, embrace the challenge! Boatbuilding is something new to learn, to pass down to future generations and connect you with the process of creating something with your own hands. Nothing compares!
  Don’t put off building the boat of your dreams—visit our online catalog of Boat Designs today and turn that dream into reality. If you are already building a boat, which I’m sure many of you are, do us a favor and pass the word about Glen-L—I would sure appreciate it! Until next time… Happy Boatbuilding!
