well congrats,

the woodwork looks great ! :applause:

about the sleeping area, can you fit a double in there?

seems like the spar make you loose a lot of headroom, any storage compartment? and ever weigthed it ?

anyhow vince lombardi ;) or fidel castro would be real proud of your overall design. :cigar:

There is a double bed in there and plenty of headroom. We have 3 closets up front with plenty of clothes storage and the center closet is tall enough for hang up clothes.

The main area that I sacrificed space was the galley. When I get the things done I have planned, the galley will be suffient for the type of camping we do with the teardrop.

sounds good joe,

would like to figure the drag coeficient, looks like it would stream the air reaalllyy good, better than many, many design,like a bowlus chief and your galley is the most innovative we've seen so far, glad your share with us.

It's scary when you start making the same noises as your coffee maker.

I still think this is possible

Just compare this model to the above pic :thinking:
Kevlar canoes are built by stripping and fairing pieces of foam, covered with epoxy and kevlar. This could be done in a similar fashion. With glass instead, obviously! I don't know about galley location though,
