I have SO wanted to string a hammock across the aft deck. I think I just got inspired!!!

If you keep the seaweed away from the cockpit and minimize all ropes and cordage....it will make your cockpit look bigger!!!!
 
Enough for a hammock and the plastic owl. All good.

I heard if you have money, you don't need a big cockpit!!! I am a little worried about my cockpit. It is big enough but it is getting old and a little bit soft. The cool thing....on a really clear night, you can be standing in your cockpit and you are able to see Uranus!!!
 
FlyWright needs a good-sized cockpit to fish.





Since we don't, we only need room to sit.

reminds me of a joke...

Wedding night, wife takes her first look at the guys small cockpit and declares, "Who are you going to please with that?"

His reply, "Me!"

Dude, I'm more worried about that Miller Lite beer you're desperately trying to conceal from us with that beer cozie. You're not fooling any of us!!

Car biz is slow. Gotta do what you gotta do!

that doesn't look like much of a railing to hang a hammock on...

Yeah that railing was a little suspect. I think the angle on the railing stiffened it up some but I was careful with it. I'm only 180 so not too fat yet.

Talk about big cockpits . How about a cockpit that's almost half the length of the boat . Like I said before William is like a mullet ( haircut ) business in the front and party in the back :D

Miller Lite is redundant :rolleyes:

OP should have borrowed Baker's line handling eye candy for the photo. Just sayin' :whistling:
 
How can you complain about a small cockpit when you have a Portuguese hot tub?:ermm:

Ha! My new favorite name for that thing! Love it.

Someday I will fill that sucker with water. Probably flip the boat.

Thanks to everyone for helping me through this difficult time dealing with my small cockpit. ?
