This one looks quite similar to one of the 100's I have drawn myself ;-)
In my sense of proportions your HP40 is more like the sport version of the HP50 or let us settle for the HP45. It's lineage from the HP60 is clear. This boat makes more sense in the tropics than in the Atlantic where my reflexes come from. The tilting roof of the berths is attractive but I would be nervous about seepage in rough seas. The hard top is also attractive but I would bet that in the waters here the soft screens would be on almost permanently. The bunks are only separated by a wall from the saloon/galley. Isn't it a shame not to make use of them during the day? I would think closing off the bunks from the central saloon/galley for privacy at night would be easier than perfecting a tilting roof opening up towards the ends. Or have the roof tilt the other way integrating the opening with the soft screens setup of the galley to form a soft roof.With bar stools the tables could fold at the same level and extend the galley tops.
How do the beams run through the ww hull?
This sure does not look like a poor man's cruiser looks but more like the perfect boat for a party (in the summer in my region)..
