I'd put more thought into these responses because right now I do not have much patience with you.

You ship does not look like a yacht. The hull shape is wrong (you want it to look more like a cruiser not a dreadnaught).

I'd remove the entire superstructure, put in some masts, and then build the stuperstructure around them. Be sure to add lots of graceful curves, remember yachts were made for pleasure, as well as displays of power and wealth. Take Hitler's yacht for example:

I agree with both of them. The hull looks too battleship like and not very elegant. The superstructure you have on there looks like a death trap with those massive window galleries. You should consider making smaller windows, and separating the bridge from the rest of the superstructure. And for your emperor, you might actually consider putting on a DP gun on the bow and stern. Just look at Hitler's yacht (Although I'm not sure if those are DP guns off the top of my head).

This yacht as part of it's requirements has a ram and is to hold the entire Imperial court (with over 600 members).
She is based off an ocean liner.

An ocean liner with a ram-style bow?

My thoughts exactly. Maybe it was conceived as a battleship then they wanted a yacht, they had a spare (read as: totally unsuitable) hull lying about and hey presto, Dreadyacht!

The ram is for anti-iceberg purposes mainly (If that works).
