RE: [bolger] Side Steering

I went out to the creels once with a man who used to steer his boat while
standing on the deck, with his foot through the window on a wheel mounted
just like that.... Maybe not the context you're looking for, though.

It does make mounting the wheel easier if you're using old fashioned cables
running through blocks, as it eliminates that right angle bend.

Anyone had any experience, good or bad, with side steering? I've
seen a couple of older designs with the wheel mounted on the right
side, paralleli to the centerline. I was thing of "Diablo" with
remote steering mounted that way.
