As far as shanty-style boats go there are many different possible designs.
Phil Thiel's Escargot is a good start, but I didn't feel it had quite the headroom I was looking for.
Other possible candidates were the "free plans" such as the "Bayou Belle" and the Popular Mechanix Houseboat taken out of old magazines.
In the end, I settled on the "Dianne's Rose" which was designed by Canadian Roy Schreyer. I did so for several reasons, mostly it was because of the size and stability. I also liked the "retro" look of the cabin. I ordered a set of study plans today from https://www.roydesignedthat.com/.
