Where do I put my hatches?

I am currently building a Guillemot Coastal. The hull and deck are complete as well as the coming and lip. I will be fiberglassing next week. I need to know the placement of the hatches. I see that the rear hatch on the plan starts just aft of the cockpit but there is no front hatch on the drawing. Also where are the bulkheads positioned according to the plan and will there location work for someone who is 6'2" tall (all legs)? Thanks.
