Hi Zach,
Good luck with putting the plans into action.
Might suggest its worth getting along to a local liberary and pulling down some reading materials on
small boat construction. Lots of small yachts can be built using a screw / sew / glue method and whilst I don't know anything about the model you mention - I'm sure if you really want to end up building your own - you will.
You might also be suprised how
cheap an unloved yacht can be got for - keep your eyes open and you might pick up something that would save you a lot of buiding time - and get you out sailing sooner.
Either way - good luck - and enjoy.
Cheers
JOHN
