The list of requirement you have so far is a good start.
It looks like you need to set yourself a budget next.
Then look at the cost of materials at local suppliers.
Glues and fastners can cost more than the plywood.

I'd repeat my advice to use some geometry or a compute program to estimate
teh size of boat you'll need. I desinged my own first boat, a simple flat
bottom skiff, and it turned out to be just what I needed.

Of the ready made plans I'd recommend taking a look at the Dobbler 16 at
www.jonesboats.com. I've read both of Jones' boatbuilding books where he
describes a plywood and a fibreglass version he has built.
