[PUP] Passagemaker attributes - pilothouse location

[Bo Leonard]

I am sure you guys have read all about Windhorse and Steve's explanation
as to why she was designed the way she was.  COG is so important and
most builders simply miss it.

John, where the Seahorses pilot house is located is perfect has been
tested with a few over the whole boat and never an adrenalin moment. I
also like the aft stateroom location and on our Duck I copied the
floor plan on the Seahorse/10&2 because bow location is like riding a
bucking bronco in a hurricane! God Bless - Ross
