Hi Dale,
Might take a look at the duo1000. I have a half completed project that you can finish. That would help you make a quick progress and it will fit your future needs.?
Life takes up on you in a blink of an eye. So if you want to sail also instead of building all the time (and end up too small for the next phase in life so start a new project…. Don’t ask, I’ve got the t-shirt ;) )

Hi voya12m and Bernd
Thanks for your replies! It is great to hear some feedback.
Definitely agree on the costs of a boatyard, so a trailered version would be great. I live in a city, so my only issue is where to park it when in use. We are building two parking spaces at our house, but they will be very small. That is something I might need to consider down the road.
I hadn't considered the KD 650 and that looks like it has a good amount of space! The Eco 5.5 also looks great. I will grab a couple of sets of study plans!
The Voyager looks beautiful! And I love the idea of moving the family on there!
One more quick question, how many boats do you think you should build in a lifetime :-D?
For example, I am 31 with 2 young kids. If I build a Eco 5.5 or a KD 650 and then in 3 years want to build something bigger and then in 6-8 years want to head onto the Pelican project – is this realistic while working a full time job and being a father? Or do you think I would be better off buying a smaller boat that I can trailer while building one of the bigger ones?
Maybe a little out there but just trying to be realistic :-)
Thanks again for your replies!
