Two significant reasons to pay attention to your helm location are visibility and safety. Correct location of a helm allows boaters to navigate the water with confidence and avoid obstacles. The layout and accessibility of the helm is designed for both comfort and ease, which can help reduce weariness for the operator. A single station setup is typically found on smaller vessels, while a dual station helm setup is more likely on larger boats and yachts, providing better visibility and control from other areas of the vessel.
