    Just like Jeff said.

    My overcover from Hennessy is very useful and I use it often. It doesn't really insulate, but because it stops wind it the warm air isn't sucked out of your hammock the way trash gets sucked out of a fast moving pickup truck.

    Thanks to all for links and explanations. Looks intriguing, if the condensation problem can be beat. Now I know what an "overcover" is!
