    i made something very similar 2 years ago... It was basically a fold out chair with another fold out chair right behind it. I sat in the 1st one, the second chair had my wife holding 2 umbrellas to keep us dryish. worked great, caught alot of hungry fish during a rainstorm.

    Assuming you can zip the windows up, and the rain isn't coming in from the front. This would be an awesome idea to keep relatively dry. Well, that is until you have to land a fish.

    Sure was a pretty day when that photo was shot. Wonder if they make them in a 8 x 12?

    It'd be a hoot to watch somebody in one of those try to follow a fish down the rail, kind of like playing the cello in a marching band.


    People are shocked to see sharks in the water around here.

    If you see natural water taste it. If it's salty it has sharks in it. If it's fresh it has alligators in it. If it's brackish it has both.
