Nice vessel! Why no place to sit on the wheel at the pilot house?
@JeffMerrillYachtsАй бұрын
Carlos: The pilothouse does not have enough room to fit a dedicated helm chair. Same situation on many trawlers under 50'. The docking is actually better from a standing position in the pilothouse - you can easily get out either door to help with lines and for underway, once you are on a course, sitting on the bench seat offers a great view of the outside world and your nav displays and you can easily move to make any adjustments or corrections.

I’m an Australian guy who is 55 years old and loves an aloha shirt. I am also lucky enough to work at an airport in Australia where it’s mandatory on Wednesdays and Fridays to wear aloha shirts to work. My sister is currently in Hawaii on a holiday and I gave her directions to the RS shop. she rang me today from the Waikiki ahop and with the assistant on the line we purchased my first two RS shirts. Hopefully the sizing will be right but I’m pretty sure a new addiction is born love a good quality aloha shirt there is nothing like them.
