Anyone built one of these? I'm designing and making a half-scale
version for my grandson - when he learns to swim he'll get to sail,
too!


Yep - I've built one and sailed for a few seasons now - I have more
information on my website. I really don't recommend scaling it down though,
you'll end up with a tippy, unusable boat. For a small child, you may want
to consider a more standard skiff or a pram like the Optimist (or the free
plans pram D4)
