Sleeping 4 on our 28

Post by sweetwater »

Hi all, just wanted to share a mod I did that allows us to sleep our family of 4 on our 05 flush deck.. Nothing like having your own bed.. I kinda stole the Idea from a Back Cove I saw.

That's really nice Sweetwater! Looks factory installed!

(Do hope the person up top doesn't toss and turn too much! Heck of a way for the person below to wake up!!)

Hmm, not so sure that's a compliment with Albin's! Just kidding.

Yes, excellent work, it really looks like it "belongs" there. Does than mean you do not use the aft bunk for sleeping or does the aft bunk sleep just one. The engine box aft bunk is slightly wider, my two girls, 10 & 12, fit there easily or sometime I take it for myself and have the 3 ladies on the fwd bunk..

Thanks, the aft cabin fits my 16 year old daughter. My 12 year old son requires his own space to keep the peace. They LOVE sleeping out and now everyone is happy. Now that I figured how to post pics, I will try to get a few more up of some other things we changed.

Stuff is kept to a minimum, but we haven't had much trouble finding a home for everything.
