23 Sceptre questions

[erebus]

Working through my punchlist on my new to me 1976 23 Sceptre and had one or two questions (so far!).

Steering wheel:
Anybody go for a 13.5" wheel as opposed to the standard 15"?
Had a 13.5 on my 18, which worked great. but that was a much smaller boat.
New Seastar hydraulic steering for a bracket mounted 225 Etec.
Just looking for a little more room around the helm.
Looking at the gemlux three spoke with the deluxe knob.

Canvas question:
There are snaps all down the perimeter of the windshield. Was there originally a cover of some kind for the cockpit? Like a mooring cover or summat? Boat now has a 3 bow bimini.
Wondering if anybody has any pics of Sceptre original canvas.
