    I singlehanded my scot all the time.  I am on a lake and didn’t feel it necessary to mod it for single handing.  I have a tiller extension and racing rig and find my jib sheets easy to manage and my vang is led aft.  A few things I would say to you:
    cockpit is not self bailing.  If waves splash in you bail with a plastic cup.
    i feel the scot is hard to tack in higher wind without the jib.  I don’t think it’s a great boat to under  main only.
     
    so I’d look for a keelboat with self bailing cockpit and maybe not such A massive main for boat weight
