Same here. Even with a center cockpit I like to always bow in, Just
easier getting on and off,



How so?


more privacy and most slips shallow close to
land so sinking in the mud up past the props is something I try to
avoid.



A slip near the end of the dock negates this.

The Capt. Chair is on the stbd side and in the way when boarding. So
port side to bow in is the best for me. And I have a huge amount of
Dock to port as well, and a finger pier to stbd. It has more to do with
dock and boat than a general rule.

Me two, but my bow pulpit is still 8 inches over the dock at the bow.
40 ft slip.

I do believe that Hunter has a "Scoop Stern" Stern loading would be
easier
