Sounds more like an ultralight that is being misreported as a glider.

"The glider was about 1,000 feet above the bay when the engine stopped."

A quick search brought up another article that is a bit clearer.

"NH Marine Patrol Officers learned that the ultralight was approximately 1,000 feet above the bay when the engine stopped."
