Beautiful resoration Fuggins, love the green youve used. I have to agree with grumpy, the starter position would be 180 around for obvious reasons. Unless your Jesus and can walk on water then im sure youd find it hard to start when in a boat. The second reason was for safety, as the unwary/forgetful would have their feet in closer proximity to the prop when starting. With that said its your choice which way you want it, as I was going to reverse mine as its only display and I looks more familiar and not so out of place:) Anyways great work mate, Love it!
Just Remember to keep your piggies safe when starting! lols.
