  3. Cockpit Controls - Reversed

    We had a chance to use the cockpit controls on the 43', and found out that they are reversed from the flybridge controls. The port controls control the starboard engine, and the starboard controls control the port engine. Is there a logical reason for setting it up this way? I am going to...
