I know a few people in the Stuart area that could make their own molds and make carbon hulls. I'll ask my buddy who gave me a Supercat 17. He lives in Stuart. Lots of Sikorsky people in that area.

There is a cabin cruiser cat about twice that size rigged that way in Australia. You might want to search for that buyers blog of living with it for several years and see if the drawbacks he mentioned would apply to you. One issue was the downwind boom could be hanging way out over the water and hard to access rigging. Of course the one depicted here has simplified booms/sprits.
