    I did a search for "water hammock"...but there was just too much to wade through.

    And another link...although I'm a bit less convinced that this one will work for sleepin' the night away. The flex to that PVC would make me a mite nervous.

    I'm drawn to the open country. Its where the world makes the most sense. When I put myself out there I always return with something new.

    Getting into a water hammock is not as easy as it seems!!!

    I liked this video...

    It's a life of adventure! But, if it concerns you, I'm sure you could tie a large woodland creature or small child to a length of rope and drop it over the side.

    I like the idea.........as soon as your exhaustion kicks in from paddling that thing from point a to point b you just lie back and crash out!!!!!! Think they will make a whitewater version for the really adventerous hanger/paddler??????
