M_Boats: Response to Doug's query about reading in comfort on the M15

Doug, I experienced that challenge on my Thanksgiving trip. Not only was position a challenge, but so was adequate lighting. I had purchased a nice Coleman flourescent lamp which I thought was going to do the job. NOT. I rolled up the sleeping bag, placed it up near the forepeak of the V-berth, proped my feet up near the companionway hatch, and with the lamp on and a large flash light aimed at my reading material, I was able to be comfortable and see the book. If you are taller than my 5'5 though it may not work too well. ===== Time for a cool change! Sandra(Seawitch #617)
