Just one objection: chine flats look a bit too tiny to me. A few strakes would be useful too.

The boat is planned with strakes, but these are not shown on renderings. This hull is planned to have a sporty feel, therefore the small chine flats, which will make the boat heel over more in sharp turns. With more focus on cruising, the hull is planned with larger chine flats.

By the way: The boat is also planned in a version with a hardtop.
