Ahoy Y'all. Still trawler shopping for something in the 40'-44' range.
Question # 1: I've been pretty sure that one feature I definitely want is an inside helm. But I've seen a bunch of boats that were gorgeous, that we would have bought in a minute, except that they had no inside helm.
I would really value your opinions on how important (or unimportant), you have found it to have an inside helm.
Question # 2:. Of the boats we've found that had an inside helm, some had an entry door right next to the helm station. Others did not. Any thoughts about how important that side entrance is? Any thoughts on how hard it is to cut in a door if there isn't one there?
Please let me know what you think. All your comments about various brands of engines that you sent in reply to my previous post were a HUGE help!
