I thought about paint or potentially one of the truck bed liners. That would solve the aesthetics portion a bit. What was originally on the ceiling? Carpet? Afraid the kids are going to smack their heads on the ceiling.

RWilson, nice cuddy, great pics! Mine has the big well too but the portion closest to the door is filled with Deep Cycle batteries for the bow mount MinnKota. Not sure I am getting a potti in there without moving those somewhere.

I believe the highly technical term for that stuff is "monkey fur", although not sure where you would find that many albino monkeys. I guess the appeal to it was that it is fairly thick but at the same time pretty light as well as the backing being pretty light as well . Probably easier to glue to an upside down surface as compared to carpet which has some weight to it. I personally hate the feeling of it. and the looks aint so hot either but alas mine is in very good condition.

I missed your buying Ozzie's rig. Congrats. I happen to know where he got that plywood. I think I would have to glass in the plywood and then paint. I second the idea of getting some cushions that will work/near fits. I never liked the looks of the fabric on the cabin roof but it must be better than a knot on the head. How much time are you gonna spend in the cuddy anyway?

Great crew you got there Wilson.

I was hoping not to glass it in but maybe its not a bad idea. The cuddy really isn't for me other then storage, its really for the kids and the lady to get some shut eye/privacy for the potty.

Glass both sides of the wood?

If it were me, I'd glass both sides of the wood, so I could use it for storage, then throw cushions on top. This probably crazy, but you couldn't put the porta potti in the front well and hang your legs in the second well while using it, could you? Maybe have removable shims under the porta potti up so it is level with the bulkhead when in use?
