    Question on Hammock Dimensions

    (Just thrashing out some questions before I make decisions.)
    What are the dimensions of your hammock? Length and width wise.
    Do you prefer Single or Double size hammocks. Can Doubles really fit 2 people?

    Unless you have a double bridge hammock, no hammock will fit two people comfortably. My hammock is roughly 12x5 mainly because if I buy 4 yards of ripstop that is the dimensions it is and it gives me a great flat lay.

    For comfort most want a hammock at least 10 feet long and 60 inches wide. Many use the doubles for a single person 'cause they provide extra width giving a comfortable diagonal lay.
