That sir is BRILLIANT! I need to find out if my fat tail can fit underneath!
That would be super easy. Two tarps would be a solid idea to keep off ground. Even just some plastic sheeting would work. GREAT Idea!

| Post subject: | Boom Tent on Wave? |
Hey Guys, Just thinking of all the sail camping I want to do this summer on the Wave. I have grand plans and have been doing some reading of various sorts. Folks talk a lot about boom tents and this sounds great.... EXCEPT I own a wave and have no boom (No Boom for you!) I was wondering if anybody has made a "Boomless" tent? I was thinking a large Poly or canvas tarp with a D Ring installed 1/2 way and a fiber glass tent pole attached at midpoint. Then raise or lower using Halyard and pull out and stake to ground/ sand using light line to grommets. Sounds simple enough right? Any other ideas or simpler ideas? Nick |

Just get a self-supporting tent and some ties to anchor it to the tramp lacing. Here's a small 1-person tent: https://www.rei.com/product/879885/the- ... eak-1-tent They also have a 2-person that is almost the same size as the tramp. |

The tent on the tramp is an Idea I have considered. However, If I am going to camp in a tent I would probably pop it on the beach. The other consideration I had was no tent an less weight, no poles, just rope and tarp. Not sure though if others have had no luck with this. |

Would sleeping under the wave (when on land of course) work for you? Drape a tarp over the tramp and both open ends between the hulls. |
