panodano,
what do you plan using the boat for? Are you going to row it/ sail it/ or use a motor or all of the above? Are you going to fish out of it? Just curious. though i'm not building one nor have i seen that boat, i am building a 16' power dory designed by Tracy o'brien. It is also based on stitch and glue construction. Not sure i could be of any help, but if you have any questions regarding stitch and glue i may be able answer a few questions. Feel free to send me an email.
you also might check out the Wooden Boat Forum, lots' of helpful people there building wooden boats of all kinds.

Good luck and have fun building the boat.
