It's hard to make blanket statements about a boat just based on length. To many variables but from what I have seen Rec boats of that length are usually pretty sluggish.

: "John" BTW (are the plans ready for the firefly??)

I need to make one minor change but yes.
And I am think I am going to offer two versions with different coaming sizes. The 36" coaming Coy wanted just seems huge to me.
