Kelly, your observations are right, there has to be some surrounding support lines with a reversed windscreen to make it look OK. The transom is open with a hatch covering the cleats each side. Not much space for additional design features. And in fact, my design was presented to the guys building the Fjord, long before they started with their new line...

Outmywindow, I appreciate your advice to not follow the pack, it has worked well for us and we are pretty established here today. My question is what will happen on new markets, but since they are much bigger than ours, we just need a small percentige to be happy.

Codger, this boat will be owner operated. With IPS and joystick it would not be hard to drive and I think we will find our clients among pretty experienced people.

Finally, what I would buy..? I browsed through some magazines to find something, but even if I got any boat there for free, I did not find any production boat, regardless of size, that I would take.

In the past I liked the midsized Bertrams or Hinckleys, but they are not up to date and the Wally´s are a little over the top for me. Hard to please..
