google "racing model yacht plans"
I got three companies dealing with them on the first page including
http://www.sailsetc.com/miscplans.htm#intmarblehead
whose owner has a considerable reputation of winning world chamionships.

Sorry, I hadn't realised your problem.
A lot depends on what you intend to do with it when built - if you are going to race against up to date designs you will always be at a disadvantage with a free download. The guys who design winners usually build them for sale and keep their information as hidden as possible.
An alternative is to find a IOM plan and stretch it to 50" without increasing the beam. There are several such plans available for download, any of which should give very acceptable results for fun sailing, and all are amenable to streching.

Dipa.
Built one "International One meter" sailboat, it is easiest, cheaper and you could race against many ULY one meters in Argentina, ULY: Unión Latinoamericana de yates, que tiene un modelo homologado de 1 metro de eslora.

Hi:
This is the link. from wich place in Argentina are yu from?? If you want i can sell you a complete finished IOm with hi tec winch and rudder servo instaled at U$ 400. You just should connect your receiver and battery

We are working now in the 2008 racing schedule, so at least 6 races will take place in cities like Pucon, Valdivia and Puerto Varas, ( check the photos in my post)

Greetings
