Sleeping in boat

Post by womide »

We’ve got a two overnighter planned for Sunday and Monday night at a boat in campground. Bought the cuddy specifically for boat camping and this will be our first chance to use it as such. The family is really looking forward to it!

Before my Carver I winter stored my 28' Express in the driveway and springtime meant we had to sleep aboard before she was ready to be picked up and trailered for a launch date.

There's something so peaceful about sleeping on a boat. Some of the best nights sleep in my life have been those nights dockside or on the hook sleeping soundly.

You'll like sleep like a log (or a stick!) - the barely perceptible movement of the water upon your berth will ensure it, me thinks. :beergood:
Cheers, and keep a tight line :captain:

Be very careful! When you begin sleeping in a cuddy cabin boat there is a serious virus that you become subject to. Its called twofootitis :-P
Try to only boat where ducks don't walk
