Please get back to us with what you learn. It is such a normal thing that I have no fresh perspective on the subject. What you will learn will add greatly to this thread.

Now as to the choice of controls. Each has it's advantages. The capstan area footswitches are great when a washdown is needed. The helm located controls are advantageous when current, tide or wind is pulling on the boat and power assistance is used to relieve the strain on the rode when departing.

I use freefall to drop anchor.
