I want to focus on finishing the boat. So I am ready to make some
trade-offs.

How about these boats,
Robert 25:

and
Glen-L 25:

My impression is that the Robert 25 will be a far more time
consuming boat to build than the Glen-L 25 or the cats by
Richard Woods that I mentioned earlier.

What sailing experience do you have?
What boat building resources (shed, workshop, tools...)
are available to you?

Regarding cost:
Building materials for hull(s) does not cost much. What
really ads to the bill are sails, rig and hardware. If you
are not into high-performance sailing you get away with
much simpler and cheaper stuff even on the cats. It is those
tall sail plans and the weight saving efforts that drive
cost. I have no experience of either the Surfsong or the
Windsong designs but I have sailed a little on a Strider
which is similar in weight and slightly smaller than my boat
but it is a cruiser with no particular speed ambitions and
it is a relief of sorts to see the size of the blocks
etc.

Hmm, maybe you should try out one of Richard Woods smaller
cats even though they are too small for 4-5. (This is
true for the two 25-foot monos above as well. Sure, they
have four bunks but don't cram in four persons there hoping
for any type of comfort.)
