    To sell a race boat it has to win races first. Put it together, race it successfully and people will ask to buy it.

    The first thing you need to do is work out the scantlings and laminate schedule, based on how it will be equipped and it's performance expectations. Next, as has been pointed out, you'll need to build and equip one, to show what it'll do, preferably with your phone number and website promptly painted on it's side, so everyone can know who to contact.
