Has anyone tried to make a 1/2 cover from the bimini to the front for sleep over. Something that you could stand upright in. Possibly with arched polyvinyl tubes.
Something that creates some privacy and keeps the dew or breez off you at night. Just thinking out side the box. Instead of buying a full enclosure with all the doe $$$$ I don't have.
Idea's ?

You may be able to do something like in the photo below. Its just a cheap farm and fleet tarp and he put snaps in it to match the mooring covers that were already in place. He says it worked well for another couple that were with them. The boats owners slept in the back enclosure themselves.

See that don't look so difficult to do. I was even thinking of puting inside that some flexed pvc tubing to give it some arch over the top. I've got the J hooks insted of snapps. Can always order some J hooks. It' only to sleep in and then when i get moving it comes down.
