It must be the picture - I noticed this the other day, but those seats
seem set back from the helm quite a distance - almost as if you had to
have orangutang arms to steer the boat.


I also don't mean to give offense, but that bimini top - well -
um...er...that just ain't right. :)


It looks backwards for some reason.

This looks a lot better, IMO

I like the option of being at the helm in full sunshine or in shade.
A bimini gives us that option.

Obviously it is a matter of personal preference as most/many choices
in life are. Why critique or criticize his choice?


BTW: Devoting an entire 2 threads (yes, there is another one)
criticizing a fellow boater and NG members boat in a boating NG
defines what this place is all about.
