Lets pick on someone else time.

Course we go down stairs. But you will never see us. Thats for miles out to sea, in the rain or fog and peed wet through.
Then go down stairs, put the kettle on and heater and carry on as before.

We've had fourteen people seated and another six partying in our cockpit and not had one medallion clash!

I love to feel the wind blowing through my long wavy hair.

Clive,

I can understand you having a fly bridge boat as you have to travel through at least 3 seasons weather before you get from A to B.

99.9% of the time fly bridge owners are driving from upstairs wishing they were sports boat owners.
They cant go out in anything more than a gentle breeze and a slight sea because the flowers on the table and the knick knacks around the saloon may fall over.

Boating is all about being out on the water, out in the open air, not sitting in a glorified caravan straining to see over the bow.

A quick survey for you.

Those of you with fly bridge boats and only one set of main instruments (GPS/Plotter/VHF/ect) where are they mounted, in the saloon helm or up on the fly bridge??

Ouch!.... sports boats ... good fun but what are they used for? to get from A to B as fast as possible so you can get the best birth in the marina .... where as my flybridge trawler yacht I can be on the sea for longer enjoying the days cruising. It's very relaxing too, there is no rush and you get to enjoy the 'getting there' that the Yachties have..... Just in more of a straight line!

When I get into the marina there is usually a sleek Sports Boat to more alongside and ruin his view as he is so close to the water ...!

Now Kevin, lets face it as I recall.... you're bitter because Zoe won't let you have a flybridge boat
