Feature of a cruiser boat that it has a bridge area that has seating so everyone can sit around, hang out and chat as the helmsperson steers the boat.
I can't think how this could sound unridiculous in EN ... I have been thinking along the lines of 'get-together', 'mingling', 'socialising' area, but .... they don't sound to good either.

Cockpit lounge area

The cockpit lounge area is spacious enough for a crowd of friends and the swim platform includes a transom shower.

As you continue forward into the cockpit, you arrive at the helm on the starboard. The helm is located immediately forward of the cockpit lounge area. (good picture)

Double bucket seat at the helm swivel 180degrees to face the cockpit lounge area with its portable table. (good picture)
Hope that helps!

Note from asker:
| The cockpit is at the end of the boat, nowhere near the bridge. |
