Saw the following:

It's an interesting design - but for the life of me, I can't figure out how you get in and out of the thing. The two side pop-outs are listed as "windows", but I suppose you could crawl through them.

Looks like the end that tip up have zippers that are used to get in to it.

I don't get what purpose those side pop-outs serve.....other than the illusion of more space, maybe?

They could just provide a covered entry. Might be just a bit better if the curtains went to the ground. 8) ;)

Looks to me like you have to crawl up over the fenders to get in it. That would suck for those late night potty runs. Specially if one weren't particularly well dressed. 8) :shock:

Yeah, that would work better than a crawl through. Think of trying to crawl in there during rainy weather, with wet fabric sticking to you and muddy boots......no thanks!

Well at 400 pounds it might be worth the trouble of extending the curtain to make a dressing shelter/potty room. :thumbsup: Just gotta get it cheap enough and have them custom made. 8)

There is a question to the buyer regarding entrance. Yes you enter through the pop out. I would hate to climb in and out over the fenders.
I guess you could crawl through the galley :lol:

I like it. Its differant yes but I like access to the galley from inside or out. The doors are a diff style yes... but I agree that they could be modified to make a good lil changing room if need be. A fender cover could make a good seat for getting in and out. There's room for improvement but definitly not the worst ttt i've seen. :)
