Yea, ive tried all kinds of cushions, padding etc to prevent the slide to the center. No matter what I tried we end up sticking together. Lol. Not always fun on those warm summer nights.

I had a 97 and my current 2000 TS has a 1/2 cover girl cabin like yours. With the filler cushions made a huge bed and it was the best. Lots of air with hatches open above you too.

Ever tried replacing the hammock stuff with a piece of plywood?

Problem solved! That material saved some lbs but it's notorious for stretching and breaking.

Does that mean you could add a full berth up in the front of a t/s (like in the 90's era cafes and guns) without throwing off its balance? The convertible couch / bed combo really makes the cabin livable if you're into weekending and overnighting, i had wondered if it could be done without much extra weight. Not that I'm in the market for a t/s, but its nice to have a mental image to daydream about!

Well, there is an extended cover girl cabin that has the bed and the couches in the TS. But from my experience whether it's a TS or a straight bottom, you have to be careful with weight at the bow. Though I don't think a thin sheet of ply or compressed board to remedy the hammock affect in v birth of the full cabin boats would affect the CG too much.
