My wife found this on eBay and bought it for me as a surprise. This plan and article ran over two issues of Science and Mechanics in 1955. I actually did build this boat and got some good mileage. However, the keel got wet and split, so it's retired. I made a pattern and intend to do her again - better this time.  See my build thread in the Forums.
