I read somewhere (maybe Carla wrote about it) that Carl done this to balance the boat out due to countering the motor torque. As the single standard rotation motor torques the hull, It lifts the right side up and the weight of the driver on the right hand side of the console will balance it out as that side raises. Drivers weight helps bring it down. If you put the wheel all the way right it makes u stand to that side. That causes no room for the throttles but to go left of the wheel. That's why the batteries were mounted on that side too. If the wheel was on the left like a car it would make the roll in the motor torque worse. Another way Carl tried to make his hull balanced as possible.
