Net for front v-berth on 31ss
 

What is everyone using for a net to retain all the "stuff" in the v-berth? I am getting tired of picking up after each time of getting on plane. Would like to use a net of some sort. Some people suggest a Pro net for tail gates but I am curious what else is out there...

I don't know what you carry up in the v-berth. But, I carry 4 fold-up chairs in bags, 4 big bumpers, a folding step, a step bumper, and floating chairs. When all that stuff slides back together is puts a lot of weight on the net. I don't think a regular springy net would be up to the task. But, the Pro-net sure is. If you mount it as low as possible in between the cushions, you don't even have to undo it to get to your stuff. You can just pull it over the top. Pro-net also sells optional quick-release tabs that make it easy to remove.

I've got a cargo net from the trunk of a Pontiac Grand Prix stretched across my v-berth.

Plum, what size did you go with?

The mid-size. I think the small would work, but I wanted more net against the wall for support.

Thanks for the info...

Plum, how did you attach the net?

I could not bring myself to drill into my boat. I am using those little plastic 3M hooks with sticky tape that you get from Lowes/Home Depot. They have held for a couple years now.

I did the same as Plum Crazy, worked out well. Thanks

went to west marine. bought 6 black plastic pole holder. they snap closed. went to home depot bought 3 hollow fiberglass broom handles. bought some velcro. cut the ends off the broom handles. velcro the six plastic pole holders to the forward side of the bulkhead. clip in the 3 broom handles in the pole holders. done. the velcro was going to be temporary but it's worked for 2 years. and i tought i was the only one with this problem. good luck

ps: buy six rubber tips for poles, this will stop them from moving left to right

I ended up buying the white medium pro net classic. Worked great with the waves we had this past weekend.
