Wood Fiberglass hull?

I'm going to build a small motor yacht. I haven't built a sea worthy vessel yet, so I'm looking for input from builders that have completed an ocean vessel. I estimate a hull of approximately 50', and I believe a "deep V" hull is what I'm looking for. I'd like to learn more about hull designs and find plans to build the hull I want. I have a 10,000' shop and a 5x10 cnc router, so producing the parts wont be a big challenge.

What are the hull designs I should be comparing along with there benefits and disadvantages?

Where can I access plans to build a 50' +/- wood/fiberglass hull I want?

Can I get plans that are in .dxf format, compatible with AutoCAD?

Thanks in advance.
