16 - 17 ft hull

[brian c]

as my first project i would like to build a hull about 16 - 19ft and then kit it out myself.

though not a professional boat builder, i am a competant wood worker and an ex trawlerman. Basically i would like someone to let me know if there is a design of a plywood cabin cruiser hull - not a yacht - that i could build then skin with fibreglass that could set me off at my new hobby. Dosent really matter if its inboard or outboard because i have both kinds of engines lying about.

i really do hope someone can help as i'm really quite looking foreward to starting soon and any advice i could have from someone who has actually done this would be appreciated.

thanks
Brian

They have various boats, including some with trawlerish looks at 18 and 19 foot lengths.
