With PRB Riou opted for a single tiller arrangement rather than the twin wheels found on some other boats. Below: the Harken primaries with the rope end neatly disappearing into a locker beneathRiou's canting chart table/galley has been replaced with a somewhat lighter alternative. The nav station is now simply mounted on the aft side of the main bulkhead.
