While the Pilot House windows could be opening, we do not recommend this for safety purposes. There are Dutch doors in the Pilot House to provide additional ventilation. The stateroom ports are opening and have screens. Additional ventilation is also provided above the windows in the pilot house. There is excellent 360 degree visibility from the flybridge.
Dual controls are standard on the flybridge.
There is limited visibility from the Pilot House directly aft. From the Pilot House through the salon you can see the cockpit through the three windows on the aft bulkhead. The Karvi 47 is designed to maximize living space which has necessitated eliminating the side passages. Optionally a closed circuit TV can be installed not only to cover the aft part of the vessel but also the engine room and other spaces throughout the boat. Not at this time.
