there is a young couple from Southern California that have one like yours but they put the galley in the font.

They enter through the back and sleep under the galley.

tried a roof pod today, gonna add some D rings to deck so I can padlock secure it and some soft bags during transport, this will allow me to keep sleeping quarters untouched

No matter how many times I see this TD, a boat keep popping into my head. I just spend the last two
hours looking for boats that would set on top of a TD like that one. I have not yet finished rebuilding
my little used TD, still designing my Dream TD, and can’t get the idea of building a boat TD combo out
of my head. It is driving me crazy.

Hey Terry/junkboy999,

Have you seen angib's version of one in the design library ?

http://www.angib.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/t ... tear44.htm

A great design I think.

Cheers,
Norm/mezmo

Man that is very close to what I pictured in my mind. The front would slope back to more like Milliejohn
trailer above.

Thanks Mezmo

Hey John

Although this is not the same shape at you SS Minnow, it does have the entry in the back and galley up front.
The galley is deeper because of the more rounded front shape. It is close to the galley Ron posted above.

I have reinforced the roof, sealed and painted roof silver for cooling and sleeping, making a bimini top for looks and shade, hot august nights are almost here.
