What's the attraction of a flybridge?

Luddites!

But it's 2005. Just get 3rd station controls or wander lead controls, then you can drive a flybr boat from wherever /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

If you want a real flybridge boat, then look no further than the SeaCamper!

SeaCamper. We are different

You'll be singing the song for days!

Aquador would aso fit the bill, probably a bit pricey though

thing is Bluegrass out here in the Med your never short of peeps wanting to go out on account of the sunshine you see...........means I'm never short handed....plus if I was bringing her in isnt too difficult as long as the boats to port & stb are still there when you return.

Sounds fair enough! actually - on our way down there next season -will be happy to put your theory to the test!

"command bridge" Yes I'd settle for one of those probably best of both worlds. The only down side is it's always a big jump to get off.

I jumped off the bridge of this once, and only once. That was a long way down.

Yes there is that. We have fender steps which make life easier, and always lasoo cleats/bollards from on board whenever practicable so we don't have to get off when there's a bit of a gap. It is surprising how rarely you actually need to put someone ashore when mooring.

That flybridge looks safe doesn't it, in the photo gallery theres one shot that looks like the navigator has fallen off and the helmsman hasn't noticed !

Yes, but strangely alluring. Careful though, the song contains subliminal messages. Listen too many times and you will want one.

This sounds like a story? Do tell

Re: What\'s the attraction of a flybridge?

Do you know what, I can't even remember where we were, but there were six of us who jumped and it took the skiddies clean off all of us!
Not a nice sight as we scrambled back on the lifeboat and then onto the ship. It all stemmed from drunken dares during a free bar night, absolutely deadly they were and lived to regret it several times more.
Previously did it at Falmouth when we were mothballed there but that one wasn't anywhere near the height.
Don't drink now thank god!
