Forward Facing Port?
Karin Conover-Lewis wrote:
Well, different ports will offer differing visibility. Our CT-41 was a pilothouse model, with an inside helm. Naturally there were substantial ports on both sides as well as forward, plus a hatch directly above the helm station. Visibility from there was excellent except for astern. The stateroom, forward, had smaller opening ports on the forward bulkhead, but virtually no visibility from them. If you can place ports or deadlights in a way that will increase your visibility from below, while maintaining seaworthiness, I would be highly in favour of it. Because there are just times when going below is necessary, but you still want to see what's going on around you. That's what I've been thinking! Stephen |
