Heights are quite similar to my C17, both for cockpit depth and the cabin. The C17 cabin has more camber in it; 1160mm to the top at the sides, and 1300mm near the middle. A windshield like yours would look nice on top, especially if I made it a little lower to be proportional to the C17's smaller size. I'm still dithering over it, but the standard layout is not my preferred one.

OneWayTraffic remember once you have the sole down you can play to your hearts desire. Especially with the shape of the cabin. Jacques designed it to have sitting room under it. So if you want to change it a little feel free, you may not be as tall as us yanks. :D

Wintertime

Everything is slowing down now, but I have managed to get a few more small items taken care, including the bow rails and the rear seats

Also a quick action shot on the water. Nice sunny but cold day. Last trip of the year, now wrapped up for winter.

That is one fine looking boat. Might have been a tad chilly on that last ride.

Thanks Fuzz. Yes it was a bit chilly. But nice and sunny!

Time to do some indoor work for a while. Come spring I still have some further details to finish up but at least we can use it now. Looking forward to really trying it out next summer.
