Your boat looks so rugged -- like it could withstand anything short of all-out military attack. That's one serious companionway hatch also. Looks like you could laugh in the face of the "perfect storm"... just strap-in and yell "yee-haaa"!

If you lose the bubble you also lose the benefit of that inside steering station. I think there must be a way to design the dodger around the bubble, somehow.
