If you often steer with the AP from shelter behind the dodger, add a swivel mount.

Helm
Companionway.
Single display is tough. Companionway radar.
Max, I have a Garmin 3210 Chart Plotter/ Radar
Swap your wheel out for a tiller, and tuck it up under the dodger... (grin)
Radar mounting
Swing out arm in the companionway...
Ditto...
Wheel locations on some boats look like torture devices.
Hell, why not double the fun...?
Good name, "photo-op helm".
Along with CGI sailing.
Are we sailing or entertaining?
Same here. We take countless "guests" out for the 3 hour tour
Mostly the later. Family, friends,....
We do the same
Under dodger
Get a second bale and have the ability to mount it 2 places.
My two cents on radar
I have the oiginal version of Lowrance Broadband
Mine is at the NAV, with repeater/slave at the Helm ...
Max, do you have a Westsail 32?
I used to SG, now have a Nordic 40, wheel steering
Brian W has a Nordic 44.
Great discussion, very helpful, thanks
