Enclosure ideas

[southernboater]

I am looking for some type of enclosure. Something that would provided protection from the elements, to be used for "camping" on the water. Any ideas?

If your starting fresh, how about a nice big tent or a custom enclosure. With zip out screened windows.

Good idea. However, we have a forward live well right in the middle of the boat. You've got me thinking. Maybe something with an open bottom. Possibly attaching to the existing awning.

Southernboater, Here is a link that may help you. Is this what you are thinking of? I know I have seen other suggestions on a previous iboats post. If you look back through the threads past 6 you may find others. Good luck. Pontoon Products

Re: Enclosure ideas

What type of boat are we talking about???

If you have a bimini or other canvas, often you can have a "camper enclosure". I have that sort of thing with my boat . . . it enhances the bimini with front/side/aft panels, making the cockpit more like a tent.

Great link. The "Half Camper enclosure" is exactly what I had in mind.

Thank you.

I'd love to have the double bimini top full length. I wonder where they are located. We have a 24ft Starcraft.

Great pics! The problem is, if my wife sees this, my little "half camper" idea will never do.
