Looks very nice. Just curious (and I'm sure you've thought of this), won't the extended port side of the doghouse create a blind spot for you? Also does it hinder movement from the helm?

I have seen a few other guys with the same setup, notice the controls on the 'open' side of the console. When your fishing alone, having the rod right beside you on the rail is the best place for it. Having even a small wall to stand beside when its cold, windy, spray etc is even BETTER! I also know he fishes alone most of the time.

I can simply just tilt/hinge the house forward to access all the wiring and electronics/engine. The left side does kinda creat a blind spot but its not that bad, I can simply just look around it.
