As you may be aware, each 8mR yacht is custom made to the International Rule, a measurement rule that adds up to 2.4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 meters depending on which class you decide to build. If you want to build a competitive modern boat, your best bet is to hire the services of a designer who has done a number of them already, like Bruce Kirby, Phillipe Briand, or Dave Petersen. Otherwise your other choice is to buy an older one and restore it.
8mRs are big enough that a number of them have been converted to fairly comfortable cruisers.
More information can be at this website: http://www.8mr.org/
Good luck.
