A number of years ago, I built my own sailboat. She is a 19' shoal draft gaff rigged sloop. My wife and I named her "Molly" after our beloved Golden retriever. We still sail her! The plans are available from Stevenson Projects. The model is the "Weekender". Here is a great little video of several Stevenson-designed craft sailing in Yellowknife, NW Territories, Canada. Enjoy!
