Default looking for a sailboat to build

Hi,

I am considering building a sailboat,
and looking for some advice on what to build.

I am looking for something:
- That is easy to build. (stitch-n-glue??)
- Big enough for 4-5 people to sleep,
- Good enough to sail through The Aegean Sea

Maybe you can suggest me what else to consider..?

You could check out Richard Woods' designs:

4-5 people to sleep and easy to build, maybe Surfsong or
rather the bigger Windsong. Neither will offer sumptous
comfort. If that's what you want you need to go bigger
which means more money and time.

My own boat is more of a racer and too small but it could be of
interest to study its web (and the links):
