Wooden equivalent of a Classic in glass sought

I have been looking at designs now ever since I finished my first boat, a lapstrake skiff, and haven't fond exactly what I'd like to build. I still haven't but I have found a boat in fiberglass that is so perfect that I can't resist asking the same question but in this new way. where can I find plans for a traditional, carvel or cold moulded hull, all wood boat that is as close as possible to the Cape Dory Typhoon Weekender. the draft, OAL, displacement, rig and internal space, not to mention beautifully classic lines, are all perfect. Now where are the plans in wood?
Thanks all,
Ed

Try Sam Devlin and Devlin Designing. He has some designs that are very close to the Cape Dory Typhoon.
