[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 209639, member: 3438"] I have been thinking about this for my latest project, as well. As of now, I am thinking of using two pin bases and have flexibilty to move, as was suggested already. I have to work out how I'm going to switch between a "C" rear deck to full and back, easily. From my tiller experience, have always been a bench seat strattler, facing port, so offset is better and more comfortable, but I'm just 6'. That has been more comfortable to me than both feet forward and centered. If you don't have an integrated shift, you have to twist around about 160. I have never tried operating from an elevated seat where the seat is higher than the throttle at horizontal or had the flexibility to change the distance between motor and seat. If you run shallow allot, make sure it is still good position with engine tilted. Good luck with your project. [/QUOTE]
