I would like to see the general idea revived, with a few minor modifications.
1. Enlarge it in all dimensions by 10%. This would bring LOA to 22 feet and beam to 8'6". This would help compensate for today's heavier motors and heavier people.
2. Raise the front deck and windshield each a few inches. Seeing a foot of green water coming over the windshield at you can raise your stress levels.
3. Full transom with bracket and a built in swim platform. Not a European swoopy thing, just an easier way to get in and out and mount a big outboard.
4. Higher Quality construction and of course, no wood.
