Default Building a small sailboat...help

May I suggest you look at the Core Sound 17. While it's a bit bigger it is
an excellent sail boat with good support. Or the Bay river skif. There are
proven good designs and they are very good looking boats too.

Check out http://www.bandbyachtdesigns.com/

I am going to order plans for the CS-20 to build this comming winter.
Everything I read about these boats is good. I have looked for a long time
trying to find the perfect daysailer. While maybe not perfect these boats
come as close I think I will ever find. (an no, I don't work for them)

om...
I am getting ready to build my second boat. My first boat was the 8
foot flat bottom boat from the book "The New Instant Boats." My
little boat came out very nice and it was a great first boat to build.
For my next boat I want to make a small sail boat. I want to use
this boat in river and the bay. There are two boats I am looking at,
the Glen-17 and the Minuet (15).

Has anyone seen or build these boats? I am wondering about stability.
Any other suggestions would be great. Thanks.
