I like the design but did you run any numbers on the static weight distribution to determine the approximate change to the static trim angle? That hull form, from the looks of it does not have a lot of reserve buoyancy forward ( a little weight forward will cause it to submerge a lot and trim by the bow which can be pretty dangerous. All that wood and glass is very heavy. Most pilot houses on small boats are made of foam and thin glass or Kevlar and are much lighter. It might be ok while under way but when you slow down in any kind of sea it could get ugly fast. It might be OK but I'd be careful on your first rough water sea-trial.
Other than that you do nice work, I like the design.... Seems like a lot of time (and work) for a little boat though esp considering the current used boat market these days. You must really like the smell of fiberglass resin.
