How much distance from front of sink to counter edge?

Finalizing plans to give to carpenter to build vanity. My counter top will be 25" deep (vanity is 24"--to efficiently use teak plywood 4' X 8' sheet). Visible part of undermount sink is 11 3/8" deep X 19 1/4" long. I may be using the granite as a backsplash (not certain), so want to allow the 1" in back for that. DH thinks I should just centre sink both ways in counter, so there will be about 6.5" in front, and 6.5" in back. We are having an all-drawer vanity built, so he wants to maximize storage space, but I'm worried 6.5" back from front edge may be too far for sink...

Have spent all night scouring the internet, but haven't found any definitive answers... Is there something I'm missing, is it obvious where to put the sink?
