With the mods I have done I have gotten good at getting in and out of the helm comparment and thought I would share my technique.

1. Face the bow
2. Stick right leg in
3. Scooch down
4. Shift hips in while sucking in
5. Pull in left leg
6. Pivot 180 degrees on balls of feet with knees bent
7. Sit on throwable pfd
8. Exhale
9. Reach for tool and realize you forgot it on the swim deck
10. $?!$@!?$

@Zeus2013 I try to avoid that one so she does not know how much time and money I am spending on the boat ;)
 
I use to send my kids in but they grew up.
 
I like to climb in my helm compartment and just close the door............:confused::D.
