Every sensible racing yacht looks more like a dolphin than a brick...It doesn't look that much like a dolphin anyway, I've never seen one with a sharp pointy head.

Nature has other things to contend with that also influence its design, like catching food. Not every aspect of nature can be applied to making boats go faster. Do you see dolphin nose like appendages on the front of keels? No, because it is inefficient for racing yachts, but very good for dolphins that need to catch food.

I'm all for reverse engineering nature, but common sense should be incorporated into the design process.

My personal opinion is that it could be a great light weather boat in the hands of a skilled skipper. Probably will be a handful off the wind in a blow and waves, because it has little reserve bouyancy in the bow.
