I do like this latest bow profile much better than the prior Fjord-like one.

As for the windshield direction, I think your version of the reverse slope is successful because it is not tall (trawler like) and you also take great care with the modeling of the surfaces below and above the windshield. Wordy way of saying it works very well. A conventional backward slope also works. Ideally offer the customers their choice of either style????

I know the Scandinavian idea of style is to have a very clean line, even severe by some tastes. But ... the area of the latest design that concerns me is the aft shear. It's, err, boring. By pedestrian standards it could use a kick, or vent, or some sort of design flair. Think Italian?
