Thanks everyone, still a bit nonplussed. On the commercial Tuna boat I used to work on (48 foot) we used to go out for 2 weeks at a time in silly weather and only had a lower helm. Slamming into waves and having seaweed hanging off the radar we could still be warm and having coffee while not getting a drop through those 'leaky' windows. Not very macho I know, still I don.t mind.
