    I was assuming there would be a nice stainless rail coming down the side and wrapping around the back of that deck.

    Option 2 is the best aesthetically and period wise.

    I prefer option 2 because it makes it easier to pee overboard when you are on wheel watch at night. No need to keep a pee bucket in the bridge.
