I should have been a little more specific about the second station. The
pilothouse will be in front of the salon and the roof line will be about 40
inches higher than the salon roof line. The second station will be on top of
the salon at the back of the pilot house, and it would just be a wheel and
throttles/shifters, as light weight as possible. The pilothouse is on top of
the salon now and the boat feels overly top heavey. Of course, when we go
back together we will use the lightest material we can that will do the job
(divinicell, klegecell).

Since you put it that way, I think it sounds like a step in the right
direction.
