I like it, they didn't sell many of them but if you hate canvas and snaps etc, thats a good design as long as you can get good airflow in the wheel house.
A few things, can you get at the starter and oil filter, I'd check that because there is no remote oil filter
On the transom where the old transducer was, back out those screws and see if water comes out
The trailer looks good but like I said in another post shame on them for no safety chain. I don't care if its a bunk trailer physics is physics.
Good that it has closed cooling but still I'd look at the manifolds and risers because Volvo used only a half system. The drive looks good for a salt water boat.

I was kidding...

I'm sure functionally it's freaking awesome especially here in FL with our foul weather that pops out of nowhere. It would need A/C no questions asked, maybe even a vent in the cockpit. If I was older and loved boating but didn't care much for the sun this would be in my driveway today.

Someone should save these pics for the archive. Probably the only one you'll ever see this detailed.
