    Sleeping on a Boat?

    I've got a centre console and after watching this guy do some crazy overnighters on his tiny boat. http://https://youtu.be/Ye

    Are any of you using similar set ups?Can you buy them or do you have to make them? Thinking I could utilize the rod holders.

    I have slept on my 5 m stabi a few times. As long as conditions are good. Small roll up bedroll and a tarp over the top.

    Can't open the link. Is it Tasman? I think we have the same boat from memory. I've racked my brain trying to work it out, but the centre console is a pain in the arse for this kind of thing. Great boat, just not for overnighters. A tiller steer or side console would be better. I do have an idea, but it's not there yet.
