Sonedpirate, you haven't remotely the skills necessary to self design a circumnavigating micro. Hell, you don't even know what plywood to use for God sake. Get a grip, free plans for a world traveling micro, are you really this naive?

A craft capable of circumnavigating is designed to a fair high level. A micro capable of the same, to a much higher level. I mean if you have this "Trekka" obsession, then great, but you need a lot more then a boat and a case of string beans to get you through. There are fairly low cost plans available, for these small, micro cruisers, but a circumnavigator? Please force the people that love you, to keep up the life insurance payments.

Of course, many of them drown. It is natural selection.
