I'm not sure the video function works in the forum. YouTube is your friend.

got it, thanks

Jason,

I was trying to post a trip I took to Catalina with a bunch of stuff in a little boat.
Looking forward to making that trip again soon, with the same amount of stuff, in a bigger boat.

cool. I've seen people cross in smaller and then sleep on them :-)

I didn't think the video function worked on the forum software. I've tried and it didn't work and I've seen other people try too. thought is was a forum issue. Maybe they fixed it?

smaller than my boat?

That's nuts, and sleeping on the boat too? I'm down with cheap ghetto camping, but not on a 4m boat.
Tom (NCP) has a pretty cool tent set up on the bow of his 7M that would work for me.
Definitely looking forward to making the trip on a 7M. I'm sure I will notice the difference.

Zip - would the bike not be more secure if you took the wheels off?

Poly, maybe but,,,

that would require more effort and tools.
It is pretty secure, but a little spooky in small craft advisory.

For a second there, I thought you converted your RIB to a pedal boat.

That *would* have been stupid.

LOL.

I'd love to see photos of a tent or other sleeping arrangement on a smaller RIB or SIB.
