There is quite a good article from Ullman about console design.

IMO One of the great advantages of buying a new custom built RIB (by a good maker)is having it measured and built around and to your personal ergo's
...Boating needs and driving style....
Choices made like Consul height/position ..seating height placement/throttle/steering position and equipment is a real advantage and pays many dividends!...anything else has to be by definition "Pot luck"....you can often improve a layout on a used boat but a bespoke personal configuration with decisions bourne out of experience! ..is what many decide is well worth paying a premium for.
