Looking for a steeringconsole for my Bombard C4. I don't like the plastic consoles that are mounted on a seat. I prefer stainless and a little more height so I can stand behind the wheel. Any suggestions ? Do you always sit or do you prefer to stand up ?
Unless there's a good reason to be standing - at low speed only - I sit.
I don't stand at planing speed, too much chance of a slip or unexpected movement of the boat unbalancing you & you're either on the floor or over the side.
Small boat (less than, say, 5m or so) sit. Larger, stand. Small boats react more violently (to use a generic term) to water movement. A small boat in swell or chop will try to throw you around more than a larger boat in the same conditions. Does depend on what you're using the boat for though.
