@paulhelbert how much did it cost you to build?

Around three hundred fifty U.S. dollars) including spars sail and all. Could easily have gone cheaper or spent more. I used some cheap plywood where I wish I had used marine. Used spectra for halyard and downhaul. Could have used junkier wood for framing without harm. Am very happy with the boat and would say that even if you do not build an OZ, you might want to purchase the $20 plans and study them. They are a valuable resource with lots of ideas applicable to any boat or woodwork project.
