A very pretty boat. Should look good on the water and go well. Just a personal thing, I would be strongly tempted to lose the stanchions and side ropes. Letting sails in and out is always fraught with the certainty that slack lines will grab and tangle on anything available. Also, is there any sort of seal under the edges of the hatch? It can be surprising, with the right weather and everything working well, how much water goes onto the deck, and how much force is behind it when it finds the hatch.
