Pretty boat - love it when they float on their lines.

Seems like a bit more overhang at the stern - perhaps a bit of bowsprit wouldn't hurt her looks? Shrouds seem pretty far aft.
Love the binnacle! The tall guard seems destined for an instrument pod. I like the hatches in the cockpit seats. Close them and have seating - open them and ventilate the 1/4 berths.
Curious about the fitting in the cockpit coaming aft and outboard the sheet winches - perhaps for running backstays?
The two panels are nicely done, but I'm not sure if I care for the chrome. Port seems to be hydraulics, stbd for engine instruments.
Curious about that line leading to the aft centerline of the cockpit coaming - is that the mainsheet? Single part - must lead to a big winch - somewhere. And no sheaves to take the side load with the boom off centerline. And where's the traveler? She's going to need a GOOD vang, which I don't see.
Workmanship is beautiful - I'd be surprised at anything else from R.M.
