Actually Val, I like the perimeter benches on your aft deck/cockpit. I considered doing something similar to mine, which has no recessed wheel well - wheel's attached to the aft end of the pilothouse. The raised helm on the poop deck is cambered, but on a continuous plane with the toerail - with no cockpit drains necessary.

Additionally, the pilothouse access doors are on port/starboard sides. Therefore if we're ever pooped, or knocked down, seawater simply washes off the aft deck and through bulwark scuppers at the forward decks.
