Dave,

Pick a day next week for me to show you and your family how the pop-top 
works, and how the table converts to make the bed in the cabin.  As soon 
as you see it, you will start to have ideas.  This is one of those 
instances where a fresh view can be a big help.

I've got a wedding on Saturday, and will probably stay in the city until 
Sunday, but I'm free after that.  I'll be on the water tomorrow, but 
might go into the city Friday night--plans not settled.

Let me know when is good for you.

Bill

PS -- Bruce and other guys bigger than Stan--the Boom Room makes 
sleeping on board a no-brainer for bigger people.
