Wow, that's what I really wanted for Christmas. Asked for the wrong thing!
Hope you all noticed that it is a cutter.

Cutter Rig
Yes, Ed, you bet I noticed. Wonder if it's a permanent innerstay or a removeable one?
Also, I noticed, f-i-n-a-l-l-y.....there is a backsplash around the galley sink! It has always bugged me that manufacturers would construct the galley with the varnished cabinetry going right down to the galley counter top which then allows any water to wick up into the wood and cause staining. Ditto for the wood trim they would put around the edge of the counter top.
While Hunter has a backsplash they eliminated any trim to contain water or things like dishes and silverware that might be on the countertop. I don't think that pipe "railing" around the edge of the countertop will retain anything that is shallow - jar lids, dishes, etc.
For as large as the boat is, and for as many people that might be on board, the salon table is awfully small. In fact, probably even smaller than on some of the older 30-something boats. One would think that with all the breakthrough design ideas that someone would have come up with a better and larger table & seating system by now.
The cabinetry looks nice in the pictures.
Back to the cutter rig - that can also be somewhat of a safety system for keeping the rig aloft in the event something happens to the forestay.
