Gorgeous photos! Our beagle loved sleeping beneath the triangle part of the v-berth - it was a cozy cubby hole for her with an folded-up flannel sheet for a bed. Can your dog jump up there without help? Alternate dog nest - under the dinette table - same cozy blankie.

Ewan is a Malamute and is 9 mos. Already he is going on 100 lbs. There is not so much room for him under the dinette or the V cubby when the filler is in. He doesn't have any trouble hopping up in there though and has claimed the port side V in front of the locker and under the shelf with the heater as his own. He also seems to like laying on the cockpit sole while underway. I dunno maybe he likes the exhaust.....

Lol that's neat. You should see my macaw, he already has his spots picked on the Trojan and it's in the back yard, darn bird loves being on the windshield of the ski boat under way. 3 dogs just love being anywhere we are. They look at the water and just lay down :roll:

Are you concerned about CO/station wagon effect in the cockpit? It always made me nervous to leave the dog below, so we took her up to the bridge, which she loved. She curled up and went to sleep on the front seat. Not so easy with a 100 lb dog, though. You need a davit!

Very nice, I purchased my F32 out of Mallets Bay. Beautiful cruising up on Lake Champlain, can't wait to go back some day.
