Also would it be a good idea to have an MPS style boom so to allow for crew movements.

On the subject of little kiddies boats, does anyone remember what that Bic
boat was called at the london boat show? IIRC it was a bit
'windsurferish' (surprise surprise), but looked quite fun if you're a small type

over modern moth weight but still light... there isnt much of it and its not going to be taking high stress at any point so its feasable. Chances are its hull weight only though.
