So my question is : where is the cockpit in the nanoat ? [;)]
.

This is a good question, because I do not know it exactly myself...
My idea is to drive it from where the table on the front door is, the way you can look through the window in the front door. And you drive it with an remote control.
But I can imagine that if the NANOAT will ever become reality I will find another solution for this "unclear situation".
So, it will not be a boat to navigate 10 hours every day for 3 month or so, but it should be a boat for relaxed cruising for a couple of hours to reach a beautiful spot to spend the evening and the night and perhaps some days.
So, unfortunately, I can not answer your question conclusively, but I hope that you understand my idea, even if my thoughts are sometimes a bit confused...
