    The boat isn't really as long as it looks. That bow has huge overhang and almost never gets into the act ..or does it? That's a big weight and bulk penalty to pay for apparently nothing. The extreme tumble home top sides are very very attractive and I agree w daiquiri but you may consider a slightly raised bridge for good visibility. Great looking boat timber.

    Daiquiri is right: If you paint a cow with green colour, it will still not be a frog ;)
    You have a pretty hull there - but it is not a f/bridge cruiser.
