How big and how fancy? You can never have enough 12 Vic outlets, and 120vac if you are going to look up for a generator. Also, depending on size and amenities, wire for underwater camera hookups. Flooring type is also some for consideration.... my next build I am going to put in rubber floor or vinyl planks
Depth finder shelves is something new that I hadn’t thought of. Are you saying like eye level so it helps your neck or just above so it’s out of the way?And thanks for the YouTube suggestion. I was looking for more clever ideas that aren’t as common to find on generic videos
Yeah I think you’re right about the built in furniture. Definitely would be hard to make comfy and would be heavy too. Does anybody use cots or hammocks for sleeping in? That may be easier than building a bed anyway?
Instead of spending $20 on a hammock you're better off buying a $50 cot that will fold up nice and small. Hammock will be a pain because the comfort of your sleep will depend on hang height and angle which is a pain to set inside a shanty. A cot will also stay warm with covers, a hammock drains heat from the bottom because of the air passing under (unless insulate or matted)
A 12 pack.
Would an air mattress be cold to sleep on or would the air insulate you better from the floor just as well as a cot?
It depends on the temp at which you sleep. If you go no-heat, then an old-fashioned, non-insulated air mattress will be cold to sleep on. Some of the more modern options like a Therm-A-Rest Mondoking would be very nice. If you keep it at-home warm, then it doesn't matter.
