Suggest google:

look for stitch and glue boat plan.

A dory is about as simple as it gets for a seaworthy boat.

Plywood planks stitched together with wire over frames and then covered with fiberglass. Stiching wires removed and more fiberglass.

Fast relatively inexpensive.

ie. here:

Keep in mind no boat is cheap; it is merely a hole in the water that you pour money into.

Gard, you have been warned! .......Dan

Willeke, that link was really good, thanks! Gard
