back yard builder

Hello everyone,

Has anyone ever built one of Mr. Hess' Bristol Channel Cutters in wood-epoxy?  Are the plans available to do so?  Where would an ambitious fellow like me purchase a set of plans?  Several years ago I saw a one that was carvel built.  Unfortunately I did not note the name, but the fellow who owned it claimed it was built by one the Mr. Hess' students.
