This is the plug for the upcoming D34, now being sanded and polished to build the mould from. The deck is still in the mill, I may go there this week to check it.

Lars you have a runway next to the factory? You make private jets too |

Yes Ron, that runway can take my Gulfstream 550, when I get it...
Here is a new open on the D29 hull we may produce later this year. A little different for a different target group.

that's some tender-alike boat - but the round end of the windscreen doesn't fit in my eyes - maybe more a hard edge?

Jannick, the fact that your eye sticked to the window shape, makes it special. Without it, there would be nothing special...? Actually, this style was used on a couple of boats in the 1960:s and I still like it. Besides giving a better wind protection. But weŽll see how it ends up.

as normal you're right  - that's what make this one special - just another idea: have you tried a reverse windscreen on that one?

If thats the D29 hull it started as a reverse didnt it?
I like the round end on the windscreen, actually it reminds of gofast glasses if any of you know what i mean.

So long as it's nit-pick season on this design ...
I'm Ok with this windshield shape. But am not so comfy with the simplicity of the helm setup. I would be tempted to add a hardtop. Which would give a major change to the whole look. Maybe even require a completely different windshield.

Yes Kelly, but this is where I started. I removed the hardtop and changed the windscreen from the original D29... |

The hardtop was nice, and would suit the weather where I am, but i like the open, looks kinna more mediterranean, riviera, you know, something like that.
Question Lars, is that a maneuvering thruster at the fore end of the hull?

Yes Toppsy, we have bowthrusters as standard from this size of boat and up. It can be nice on single engine boats, especially if you are alone onboard. On a recent 40-footer we have both stern- and bowthruster, plus a docking station aft...
