Check A&J Canvas in Vanceboro NC. They made if for GW. Send them your original, they copy it and send a new one out. Same material as OEM.
Your price seems reasonable to me if for the same grade material.
I'd template them with brown paper and cardboard. Once you get the first template done, transfer to a sturdy material and either have fabricated or do it yourself with starboard.
The walk allows rapid and safe access to the bow which in my opinion a big factor. You give up room, but if you need to get to the windlass or assist in docking the WA offers it.
The 30'er will be fine for two. Walking around a boat on the hard or at a show is not representative of doing the...

I don't know. The center helm was quite tight for a boat that size. To each his own, but I'd never go for a center helm in anything smaller than a 45'er.
I've been using a remote temp water sensor at the 2nd house for years now. Recently changed to Verizon and their router is not reliable at 2.4G. Seems that most of the network temp sensors run at 2.4G. I see this company offers water bugs as well as temp/humidity. Units run $100 to $300...
I like the center helm elimination. Same 330 hull, layout change looks nice, add a foot to the model (although not really there) and charge a bunch more. Seems like the standard play.
I did my plb a couple of times. It's only a back up for me behind an EPIRB. The latter is done by the pros for what I'd say is a steep price. The PLB no issues doing it myself.
