I have an Edson mounted at 11-O-Clock. You want it there to keep it away from the family jewels when running. I am right handed and use my left to steer and right to run the throttle. Great for close quarters manuvering especially when docking. Like most things you get what you pay for and the Edson is well worth the priciness. Stainless steel with ceramic bearings construction. One dab of marine grease occasionally and this knob is bullet proof. Also this mounts very elegantly to your wheel and fits most with an included longer screw for bigger diameter cross section of helm wheel.
