Boat Camping Guide: the tent to sleep on board

• April 29, 2024

Boat Camping tent: aft installation has many advantages. Here’s what

Instead, it is much better to use (if you have it) the aft sundeck of your boat and set up the tent just there, thus taking advantage of the maximum beam of the boat and thus inflating the longitudinal mattress.

The advantages are multiple : less inclination for sleeping, less roll, direct access to the transom, proximity to both the engine and the steering console and, therefore, the possibility of checking the status of the battery and all the instruments on board, easy access to all bow lockers, where belongings are normally stowed.

The fist boat camping experience is almost always like this. People use traditional camping equipment, without a specific plan.

The question that naturally arises is the following: is this what is meant by boat camping ? Once I would certainly said yes but, after many years, I can assure you that, if you want to fully enjoy the experience in total safety and the upmost comfort and privacy, well….my answer is no.

Custom boat camping tent: the best possible solution

In order to better suit your needs, the tent should be designed according to the specific characteristics of your boat . Made of the right fabric, it should be therefore easy to assemble and, above all, easy to disassemble, fold and store in its bag.

Boat camping tent: it should be assembled and disassembled every day

Sunbrella is undoubtedly the best fabric for a boat camping tent, because it is lightweight, moisture-resistant and easy to fold.

My advice is to use an awning with a set of extensions connected with the hinges on the four sides and hooked to the saddle tank.

The tent should be assembled and disassembled every day: please don’t ever understimate this procedure.

The living comfort of a boat camping tent is surprising and there’s a lot of space available. Privacy is always guaranteed and there is no heat, cold or moisture.

A final recommendation: the tent should be always assembled before the sunset and after tubular desalinization in order to prevent moisture from remaining inside and thuse having the possibility to sleep dry.

Good night!

Pontoon Boat Camping: Enclosures, Preparing, Ideas & Tips

Looking for new ways to enjoy your boat? Sure, those mid-lake day trips might have satisfied your little family up until now. But there are more ways to experience your pontoon than simply taking it out for a spin once in a while. We're talking about pontoon boat camping.

Melding together comfort and the great outdoors, camping on deck is the perfect option for families who want to enjoy the serenity of mother nature without actually having to roll in the dirt. Planning a fun-filled on-deck camping trip with the whole family? Here's how to do it.

Preparing for Pontoon Camping

Pontoon boats are exceptionally versatile, and their wide decks make them ideal for setting up camp. But before we talk about anything else, it's important that you have all the essentials you need to make your camping trip both comfortable and safe.

Here are some must-have items that you need to buy before you haul the whole family for an overnight trip on your boat.

Porta-Potty

Unless the gang is okay with everyone taking a dump in the bushes a few steps from camp, you're going to want to buy a porta-potty. An outdoor portable toilet can make the experience of emptying your bowels alongside mother nature much more comfortable.

There are loads of options to choose from, but if you're hauling a pretty big family, capacity should be your biggest concern. This SereneLife Portable Toilet has a 5.3 gallon holding tank which might be enough for an overnight camping trip on your pontoon boat.

Check out our guide to portable pontoon boat toilets for more options.

Toilet Enclosure

No one wants to evacuate their system with everyone else standing around to see. Your portable toilet is going to need an enclosure of its own to make things a little more private. Pop-up tents are pretty popular these days in the camping niche since they're easy to set up and they fold up really small for storage.

Some tents incorporate a window cut-out that you can open or close to let fresh air in, in case that's a necessity. You might also want to get other tents for changing or taking showers. Some people even set up their pop-up bathrooms on their pontoon boats for easy access.

We recommend the WolfWise Pop-up Shower Tent .

Outdoor LED Lamp Lights

If you're camping in an area with limited or no lighting, then a set of outdoor LED light lamps should be on your list. Solar powered LED light lamps are great for outdoor use since you won't need to plug them in to power them up. Some even have a USB port that lets you hook up your phone to charge.

Consider the size of your boat and the number of people you're taking with you. It would be ideal to have a LED light set at each corner of your deck so there aren't any blind spots on board. Then you should consider having a spare light that you can take with you in case you plan to take a stroll as the sun goes down.

We like the Camping Lanterns with USB Charge .

Space Heater

Things are going to get pretty cold when the night settles in. And because pontoon boats are particularly exposed, sleeping on board could become impossible as the night wears on. Fortunately, a space heater can fix that.

When you're buying one of these bad boys, make sure you take a look at the device's power source especially if you're going to run it for several hours throughout the night. Some need to be plugged into an outlet, and take up serious energy if you're hooking up to a portable generator. Some use propane, which can be much more efficient especially if you're outdoors. Just make sure you take the necessary precautions because it's going to be a fire hazard.

Check out the Multi-Functional Campy Gear 2 in 1 Portable Propane Heater & Stove .

No one's saying it's wrong to pack pre-cooked meals for your camping trip, but no one says it's necessary either. Part of the fun of camping is that you get to cook your food in exciting new ways. If your pontoon boat has a grill installed, then you can cook up whatever you catch after an afternoon of fishing .

If you're using a propane powered heater like the one we mentioned above, then you can also use it as a stove. Again, safety protocol is key when operating a grill or propane stove. It's all fun and games until a fire breaks out. Bring a lighter and water proof matches along to help light the grill with less effort.

We love the Cuisinart Grill for Pontoon Boats .

Cooking and Eating Accessories

Since we're on the topic of meal-prep, might as well talk about all of the other accessories and items you'll need for a seamless outdoor cooking experience. Of course, a cooler is a must if you want to keep meat and produce fresh until the morning. Some boat owners even go as far as getting a mini fridge, but that also depends on the kind of power you have on board.

You can also take a second cooler with you to store ice and drinks. Consider something like these pontoon cooler tables . Some other items you can consider include plates, utensils, and cups. You can get a whole picnic set that stows away into a neat little package so it doesn't clutter your limited boat space when it isn't in use.

Check out the Coleman Xtreme Cooler , the Alpicool Portable Fridge and the Apollo Walker Picnic Backpack Set Up .

First Aid Kit

You'll never know what might happen outdoors until it happens. And while no one really wishes for accidents and injury to occur, it's always better to be prepared for the worst. A first aid kit is a must have if you're camping on your pontoon boat, especially for boating accidents that might not be life threatening. 

You can piece one together yourself by buying all of the first aid items separately. That includes bandages, tape, scissors, swabs, gauze, cotton balls, gloves, and wound disinfectant. Or you could take the easy route and just buy a whole kit that includes all of the safety essentials.

We highly recommend the Surviveware Survival First Aid Kit for Ourdoors .

Bug Repellent and Sunscreen

There are loads of bugs out there just waiting to feast on your skin. And while a bug bite or two might not be too big of a deal, it can turn into a sleepless night when the relentless stinging makes your whole body itch. Fortunately, a good spray or layer of bug spray should be enough to solve that. Make sure you get a formulation that's developed to last several hours so you can sleep soundly through the night.

Another essential item within the same realm would be sunscreen. Harsh sunlight and UV rays can cause painful burns on exposed skin. Unless you're going to be covered from head to toe in clothing (which is unlikely considering summer heat), you're going to want to make sure you have enough UV protection in the form of lotion.

You can't go wrong with OFF! Deep Woods Bug Spray as well as the Coppertone Sport Sunscreen Spray to protect you from the UV rays.

Anything can happen when you're outdoors on a camp trip, and you can't really tell when you'll have to call for help. If you're camping somewhere where you can just call for help by giving a holler, than you're pretty much set. But what if you're camping in a place where help might take hours to arrive?

For your protection and safety, you should consider copping a VHF radio. Water proof marine VHF radios are a prerequisite for pontoon boats. But if you don't have one at the ready, you can get one from the store at a very reasonable price.

Check out the Uniden Marine VHF Waterproof Radio .

Sleeping Bags

Unless you're ready to sleep on your cold hard deck, then you should get a sleeping bag. Again, choosing the right bag is really a matter of preference. Sleeping bags come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, so you can be sure to find one that's a perfect match for your preferences and standards. Some people prefer the comfort of an inflatable bed over sleep bags.

You have the option to buy a single sleeper or a double, depending on your preferred sleep arrangements. It also helps to choose something that provides enough comfort and padding without being a chore to store and stow away. If you anticipate that you might camp on your boat pretty often, then don't hesitate to invest in a sleeping bag that's better quality.

We really like the RYONGII Single Waterproof Sleeping Bag or the TETON Mammoth Queen Size Sleeping Bag .

Beach Anchor

Think about the logistics of docking in a shallow, sandy water for a minute. Your typical anchor might not do the job, since it's intended to work in areas with significant water depth. Of course, you could always just beach your pontoon, but if that's not something you're used to, you might want to invest in other gear.

A beach anchor is a simple device that digs into the sand under the water to give your pontoon boat something to hold it in place while it floats around in shallow water . There are various designs available, and they're always easy to install and pull from the water while maintaining your boat right next to your camp site.

We recommend the Beachr Beach Umbrella Sand Anchor .

Emergency Gear

You're going to want to be ready for whatever mother nature might decide to toss in your direction as you camp on the water. And while a set of life vests should be on board at all times during every trip (one for each passenger on your pontoon), there are other emergency gear essentials to take with you.

An inflatable dinghy boat should be one of the things you consider taking with you. This just gives you an emergency vessel that you can use in case something makes your pontoon boat inoperable while you're out on your camping trip.

You should consider the Newport Vessels Inflatable Dinghy Boat for up to 6 people.

What About Pontoon Boats Camping Enclosures?

If you were looking to turn your pontoon boat into a camper enclosure accessories should be at the top of your list. Unlike a bimini top that only offers shade against the sun, pontoon enclosures provide complete cover to keep things like bugs and pests out since it has a roof and walls like a full-on room. It also protects against heat and UV rays from all directions, the same way a camping tent would.

Although designs vary, you mostly pull the canvas over a framework to keep the whole thing in place. Choices for pontoon boat camping enclosures are pretty limited, so you might not have too many choices available.

TaylorMade offers an enclosure that conceals the bow of your boat, offering complete protection against the elements. It can also fit an inflatable bed or two, so you can comfortable snooze while being protected on deck.

We like this 12006OB Taylor Made Bow Enclosure, Cover, Pontoon Boat Shade & Privacy .

Pontoon Enclosure vs Tent

An enclosure isn't exactly what you would call cheap. They're also pretty hard to find in your boat's specific size. That's why some boating enthusiasts have come up with their own enclosure design ideas that they've paid to get customized. Again, that means you'll have to be ready to spend a pretty penny for the piece of camping gear.

But then again, it could make the camping trip a little more comfortable. If you have trouble sleeping at night with a tent pitched up on the beach and your boat a ways away, then sleeping on your boat under an enclosure might be the way to go.

Other than that, pontoon enclosures are much better at keeping heat in if you're using a heater. So you won't have to worry about sleeping in conditions that might be a little too cold for comfort.

On the other hand, there's the issue of moisture and wind resistance. Most of the enclosure designs you'll find are made from a marine canvas material which isn't waterproof. So if the weather picks up and decides to rain down on your boat, you could expect your enclosure to be soaked through and through, making it impossible to sleep in.

If strong winds start to assail your boat (and they might especially at night), then there's the risk of getting your enclosure ripped out of place and tossed into the water. If anything, the enclosure makes a suitable choice if you're camping in fair weather. Any other weather conditions that risk rain or wind might make the specialized tent a bad idea.

Can You Use a Bimini Top Instead?

Well, no one's going to stop you, that's for sure. While a top cover might not provide the same luxury camping experience that an enclosure would, it can definitely do the job especially if you're only camping for one night.

Of course, you just need to make sure you're camping in good weather since they're also just made of canvas. You might also want to consider slathering on an extra layer of bug repellent since a top won't provide all-around shelter and protection the way a camp enclosure would.

Choosing the Perfect Spot for Pontoon Boat Camping

Now it's time to decide on where to camp. There are loads of destinations around the country that make great choices for families looking to experience the serenity of the great outdoors through pontoon boat camping. So it's really important that you practice some due diligence before you decide on a spot. If there are any camping and boating spots nearby, you could always scout them out in person.

There are a number of websites that index all of the different pontoon boat camping spots around the country, but you could also try Google Earth . Just zero in on lakes and other bodies of water and check for parks and wilderness areas. What's nice about Google Earth is that it gives you a bird's eye view on the property so you can see what it has to offer.

But a word of caution - the software doesn't really provide a very good perspective on the topography of the wilderness areas. So before you decide, you might want to call up the property managers to learn more about the area. Some places might look suitable from up top, but turn out to have steep slopes near the water that make it impossible to pitch up a tent within view of your boat.

Other Considerations When Choosing a Location

There's more to making the decision than just the property itself. Here are a few other important considerations you need to make so you can be sure that you're going to the perfect place for a seamless pontoon boat camping getaway:

Rules and Regulations

There's a reason why all of those wilderness parks have remained relatively well-kept and camp-worthy throughout the years. That's because the park management enforces rules and regulations that help protect the land and water. Before you visit, make sure you familiarize yourself with their camp rules.

For starters, some camps have specific guides for fishing while others have rules for cooking, especially since it poses a fire hazard. Some have designated areas for cooking activities on land, which means you can't just fire up the grill anywhere you want.

Of course, rules against making too much noise area also often in place to make sure all campers can enjoy the tranquility of nature. Then there are rules that govern the disposal of trash. You can't just throw your trash or waste from your portable toilet just anywhere you want. All parks have regulations for waste and trash disposal, so see to it that you ask before you discard anything.

Weather Conditions

Rain and wind can cramp your camping style and turn a fun overnight excursion into an absolute disaster. So make sure you're looking into weather forecasts for the next few days. Plus - just because it's warm and sunny in your neck of the woods, doesn't mean it's the same where you're going.

Look into the forecast and see whether your camping plans are actually feasible. As a general rule, you're going to want to scrap a plan and take a rain check if there's the slightest indication of strong winds or rain.

Anchoring Areas

Anchoring areas for your boat is going to be one of the biggest considerations you should make before you decide on a specific location. Some parks and wildlife areas have anchoring coves that puts your boat in the vicinity of other boats. This just makes it easier to keep an eye on all of the people in the park. But then again, it might also take a toll on privacy especially if you were hoping to enjoy a little peace and quiet.

Other than that, you're going to want to inspect the kind of land underneath the water. Not all nature parks have lakes that are pontoon-friendly simply because the land beneath the waves are too jagged and uneven, risking damage to your tubes. Make sure to ask before you haul your pontoon into the park.

Tips for Pontoon Boat Camping

If you're camping on your pontoon boat for the first time, then there might be a lot of guesswork involved. To help streamline the process and guarantee enjoyment and safety, take these handy tips into consideration:

• Ask about fresh drinking water availability, and pack more than you think you need if there isn't any available at your chosen park.
• Go through your pre-departure checklist twice or thrice for good measure.
• Plan all of your meals ahead of time and schedule perishable products first.
• Pack more boating snacks than you might think you'll need.
• See to it that all safety essentials are ready especially your life vests
• Try to get your passengers to wear their life vests any time they're on board even when the boat is near land
• Don't forget to clean your trash and waste as you go - leave the park the same way you found it.
• Stay on top of the weather especially since forecasts aren't always 100% guaranteed.
• Prepare some pontoon games to keep the entertainment going and make the experience more fun for the kids.
• If you're camping with a large group, always perform a head count.
• See to it that all of the members of your group are properly briefed on safety protocol for various potential emergencies.
• Have everyone carry whistles and pocket-friendly flashlights especially if you're camping in a remote area.
• Take extra caution when lighting your fire or grill to avoid any accidents
• Never forget to leave behind a float plan with a trusted friend or relative who's staying back home.

The 6 Best Boat Enclosures to Have It Made in the Shade

The weather is fickle. Your enjoyment of your boat shouldn't be determined by whether or not the weather is playing nice . Boating should be fun rain or shine!

When your boat has the right enclosure , you can use it in all different types of weather. You'll get many more good boating days out of the year compared to what you could do lacking the right cabin or cover.

But notice how I've already referred to two different items that could be considered boat enclosures: cabins and covers. And that's not the end of the list. So, let's be clear about what a boat enclosure actually is before moving forward.

What Is a Boat Enclosure?

There are many types of boat enclosures out there on the water. Some larger vessels, such as a yacht measuring more than 45 feet, usually have multiple interior rooms, often on several different levels.

A cabin cruiser (the term is generally applied to boats measuring between 25 and 45 feet in length) usually has at least one berth and other interior spaces, including a head (toilet facility) and sometimes a galley (AKA the kitchen).

Most of the time when you hear the term "boat enclosure," it's referring to a structure built around the cockpit area of a boat with a generally open deck design. The most common examples of vessels where enclosures are added are pontoon boats , deck boats  and motorboats.

When you choose the right boat enclosure for your boat, you can enhance the craft dramatically. You're converting an open, exposed vessel into a boat ready for inclement weather, a boat you can enjoy during overnight outings and a boat that provides you and your passengers more privacy and comfort in all conditions.

How to Choose the Right Boat Enclosure

There are a few factors that impact which boat enclosure will best suit your vessel. These are primarily (though not exclusively) boat type, where you use the boat and how you use the boat.

When choosing a boat enclosure, first and foremost, you have to consider what type of boat you have. A large long pontoon boat or a deck boat with a big open top can usually be enclosed with myriad types of structures, while a speedboat with a built-in windshield and an aerodynamic cockpit area will have fewer options.

Not only is a speedboat often the wrong shape for many types of boat enclosures, but consider the fact that a speedboat traveling at a rapid rate will create enough wind resistance to damage or even dislodge many types of boat enclosures.

If you spend long leisurely hours on your boat, or if you even use your boat for overnight camping, then it's imperative that you get a boat enclosure that affords you real protection against precipitation, wind and the splashing of higher waves.

If, on the other hand, you use your boat for shorter trips of just a few hours, then an enclosure that offers less cover is fine. Any decent boat enclosure will block the sun sufficiently, and you can simply cut the trip short if bad weather arises.

Boat Location

If you keep your boat in a harbor on the Gulf Coast of Florida , you don't have to worry much about freezing temperatures and you probably don't need a boat enclosure that can fully seal off your vessel.

If you spend time traversing the lakes and rivers of the northern reaches of North America, then an enclosure that approximates a room that can trap and hold warmth is quite a good idea.    

Featured Boat Care Product

Check Price on Amazon  - adds a water-repellent barrier to canvas, polyester, leather, nylon and more. Water simply beads up and wicks away to ward off mildew, stains and UV rays. It's the perfect application for bimini tops, umbrellas, boat covers, tents, luggage and patio furniture.   

Boat Enclosure Material

The type of material from which your boat enclosure is constructed matters, and the locations and ways in which you use your boat play a determining factor in choosing which material suits your boat best.

Even after you have selected the right type/design of boat enclosure for your needs, make sure you choose an enclosure made from the right materials as well.

Salt water is more corrosive than fresh water , so make sure to think about the type of spray and waves that will be splashing over your enclosure. If the boat will be used in both freshwater and out at sea, then treat it as a saltwater vessel.

Sun exposure (UV damage)

If your boat is moored in a shaded area or parked under an awning when not in use, then sun exposure might not be a big issue.

If it's always exposed to sunshine, however, you need to find a material that's highly resistant to sun damage.

Consider updating your existing boat enclosure (or even a full cabin) with high-quality marine window tint to block the heat and damaging UV light created by sunshine.

Precipitation

Rain, sleet, hail and snow are all worth your consideration if any or all of these common types of precipitation are possibilities in your area. An enclosure that's impervious to rain might not be able to support much snow load, for example, or might be easily damaged by heavy hailstones.

There's rarely a one-size-fits-all solution to creating an ideal boat enclosure , and that's a good thing. You can use a variety of materials, fabrics and designs to instead create a custom enclosure that fits your needs and your budget.

1. Camper Enclosures

These enclosures create large protected areas of your boat, and they can be used in concert with various types of permanent or removable roof structures (see below on bimini tops).

A camper-style enclosure is usually constructed largely from thick durable fabric that offers protection against the elements and adds privacy, but note that they usually reduce the view out of, and fresh air passing over, large portions of your boat.

These types of boat enclosures are also typically custom-made. For example, here's a variety of boat camper enclosures from Great Lakes Skipper . However, If you're not too keen on this route, there are still plenty of ready-built and makeshift DIY options listed for you below.

2. Polycarbonate or Acrylic Panels

Polycarbonates and acrylics are both essentially transparent plastics. The former is the most durable and the more expensive, while acrylic is more flexible and more affordable, but not quite so shatterproof.

You can have a see-through enclosure fabricated out of these materials in almost any shape and design. Create a weather-resistant and wind-resistant enclosure around as much of your boat as you would like.

Most boaters design such enclosures around the driver's area and the seating nearest to the cockpit. More readily removable fabric or vinyl sheeting can always be used in concert with plastic paneling. Check out some examples here .

3. Fabric and Vinyl Sheet Enclosures

Using sheets made of fabric (usually canvas) and/or vinyl (prized for usually being see-through) to create an enclosed area around seating, a wheel area or other deck areas is often the most cost-effective way to create a boat enclosure.

Fabric and vinyl are also good choices because they're usually kept in place with zipper and/or snaps and can be rolled up and out of the way to create the open deck you love in fair weather.

An enclosure made of sheeting is also remarkably easy to customize and use in tandem with both permanent and removable walls and roofing.

Here's one simple vinyl tarp enclosure that you can use (check price on Amazon) .

4. Bimini Top

Sometimes the best boat enclosure is simply one that offers you some protection from the sun when you need it. Keeping rain off you is also a plus. In other words, sometimes all you need from a boat enclosure is a roof that covers a portion of the deck.

Two of the most common roof-only types of boat enclosures are the bimini and gazebo . The bimini is the ideal choice for the boater who doesn't want to limit their space and freedom to run around. Some boats were designed with plenty of open space without cabins, walls and a roof for a reason.

If you use your boat for fishing, as a platform for research or photography or for a variety of other uses, easy freedom of movement may be important. You can't well run from bow to stern of a boat as a prized marlin pulls at your line if you've erected a massive enclosure around most of the vessel. 

You can find bimini top boat coverings for sale on Amazon for not much more than $100, depending on the size of roofing you need. Here's one great bimini option from Leader Accessories (check price on Amazon) .

Make sure that whatever bimini boat top you choose, it's made from marine-grade material and that the frame can be easily attached to your boat.

5. Gazebos and Playpens

It's little wonder where these basic but reliable boat roofs got their name. They resemble the domed top of a standard gazebo.

They provide much the same function for your boat as a gazebo does for a property in that they create an area that's protected from the sunshine.

Gazebo shades, like this one by Taylor Made (check price on Amazon) , will have to be lowered before you cruise at higher speeds, but they provide plentiful shaded coverage while in place.

While some are more open and some playpens are partially enclosed, they make great additions for the bow of a pontoon where they allow cover from the sun. Coasting at a gentler speed, you may even be able to keep these on while moving.

6. Alternatives to a Fixed Boat Enclosure

Whether you're watching your budget or if you simply don't want to add a permanent or even a semi-permanent fixture to your boat, you can still enjoy many of the benefits of a boat enclosure using more temporary, portable and cost-effective ideas.

Many of the same items that provide you respite from the sun, rain and wind back on land can be used on your boat.

Beach/Patio umbrella

Your  average patio umbrella (check price on Amazon)  isn't a great choice for use in high winds (or at high speeds), but it provides great relief from the shade and from light rains when deployed on the deck of your boat.

Use it when stationary or trolling slowly along. Just keep in mind that you'll need to bring the same heavily-weighted umbrella bas e (check price on Amazon)  that keeps an umbrella upright on a deck or patio along for the nautical journey.

Camp chair with shade

Many camp chairs, such as this Quik Shade MAX (check price on Amazon) , come with a built-in (and almost always retractable) sun shade. That means one affordable and portable unit can serve as both additional boat seating and can offer protection against the elements.  

Better Boat's  Fabric Waterproofing Spray  is a terrific way to add a water-repellent barrier to fabrics, which will keep umbrellas and bimini tops from leaking and getting mold and mildew stains . It's safe for canvas, nylon, polyester and leather .

Ready to have it made in the shade? Choose the ideal enclosure for your boat, and get out on the water rain or shine!

Full camping enclosure question

• Thread starter ct0218
• Start date Sep 27, 2013

Well-Known Member

I'm seriously considering ordering a 2014 24 SSR with a full camping enclosure in a few months. We plan on spending several days at a time camping on the pontoon, and using my bass boat for most of the fishing. I really like the idea of the enclosure, but since the are somewhat pricey I want to make sure that what I buy will work and last me a few years. I want one that will be relatively rain proof during our frequent mountain rainstorms, and will provide good visibility should I have to run with the enclosure installed. Those of you that have one, how do you rate it--likes and/or dislikes?

I don't own one, but seeing them on our lake, and reading numerous post here and elsewhere I wi give my input. 1. They are not watertight but do provide adequate shelter from rain storms. 2. Driving in rain is like driving your car without windshield wipers but with the windshield 10' or away from you which means limited visibility. 3. A pontoon in the wind is already a sailboat, with the enclosure it's 2-3 times as bad. 4. On that nite, if I had the ability I would still get one as it makes the toon more useful. Rain or shine. I hope to get one so we can cruise the ICW someday. Hope this input helps in your decision.  

I do not have one either ,how ever I am thinking about having a " custom " one made . The dealer where I purchased our boat has their own canvas shop . It is doable and I will save a few $$$$

We ordered ours as an option for the boat straight from Bennington.  Prices are in the config tool.  I did notice that the top was actually made by Tumacs covers.  

We will be trailering the pontoon about an hour each way, each trip, so if it goes up and down fairly easy that would be good. We probably wouldn't use the enclosure much on day trips, but definitely would on overnighters. I hope it is fairly dry inside during rain and thunderstorms. We have those come through all hours of the day and night here in the smoky mountains, and I sure hate getting my bed wet! Is the Bennington enclosure made of the same material as the biminis? Thanks for all the input and info.  

We are still working on getting ours complete (you can read about this in my other post), but it is the same material as the biminis so it matches perfectly.  

• Oct 7, 2013

We have the single bimini on the 22SSX and the full slant cabin! We love it the top goes up really easy we store it in the changing station and it goes up very fast. I would like the 2 bimini one with the flat front as the slant is kinda hard to see out of and it would be nice if you could roll the plastic up and have screens on the front as well but then they would leak water in. We can leave the back off and you can go out and fish in the rain just drop anchor out the front and you stay nice and dry while fishing! You wont be sorry getting the cabin!  

Thanks for the input, looks like it is well worth what they cost

We pulled our boat last weekend because it was too cold to cruise and perhaps the camper top would have delayed that but in addition to the cost how much effort is it to set it up and take it down.  I can't imagine that it is left on during the summer.  Just climbing under the mooring cover to put up my support poles and the temperature already feels like over 100 degrees, can't imagine what the temperature would be with the enclosure on during the summer.  So all in all is it worth the $3500 to add a week or two in the spring and fall?

Just some guy.

I'm also a crawl under kinda guy. Just how I've always done it. Your way sounds better, but maybe I'll try it next year.  

We're not that warm here in the mountains. The highest  temperature at my house this summer was 84*, most days are in the 70's. During the morning and afternoon it is even cooler. An enclosure would extend the season a couple months, or more.  

I guarantee if we had the ability to keep the toon on the lake over winter, we would definitely invest in the enclosure, and get a portable heater, and spend winter weekends on the toon, no questions asked !!!!
