Buildding a RUARRI

I have never built a boat before and untill it was recommended to me had never thought of doing one in steel.Well here I am taking the first steps in planning it out.
What I am hoping to achieve with this post is to get a few good tips on things I might not think about and want to avoid some common mistakes.
Ok the question i way too vague.
I am going to wait untill the plans come so that I can ask more specific questions.
