Mark,

I've considered this and if I buy a better boat that's the route I'll =
probably take.  I think the pop-top enclosure and bimini would probably =
be sufficient.  I doubt that I would bother to set up a boom room as I =
mostly see myself single-handing the boat.  How do you use your boat?  I =
see myself doing fairly extensive trailor sailing.  Go to someplace, =
launch and live aboard for a week or two with a marina stop every day or =
three to dump the holding tank or porta-potty, shower and resupply.  In =
this scenario I see an occasional day or two to sit out stormy weather =
when I'll be confined to the boat.  I want that to be a comfortable =
time, not an exercise in misery. =20

Thanks for the input,  John Roland

Seems like it'd be cheaper and a lot easier to just buy the boom room =
and pop-top enclosure. Pretty much the only times I sit below is in foul =
weather or when I'm using the head. If it's not blowing much, there's =
usually a dry spot under the bimini, and, if you had the boom room, the =
entire cockpit could be kept dry. Seems a shame to chop up a Rhodes.
