1. Many boaters describe experiences in tight navigating & handling situations, such as picking up moorings, threading among coral reefs, etc. For single-handers, these situations may be eased if a person had remote control of speed & steering, while on the bow, for example. The controls could be worn around the neck, like those operating drones, model planes, etc. Joystick for steering, forward, back, etc.
As usual, there are many drawbacks of which I'm ignorant, one of which is how expensive to spec or retrofit a boat with this system.
2. Would it serve any purpose to list cubic feet for living spaces or other spaces like engine rooms/compartments in boat listings?
I'm not trolling. I've had limited boating experience, but enjoy reading/viewing others' boat lives, experiences, preferences, etc. I do not anticipate joining in any discussion which may follow, as I have no argument, just posing a couple of thoughts.
