Thanks for sharing with us - looks nice and impressive.

Few questions:

- where do you sleep ?
- in the cabin ceiling, I see two lockers as well, correct ? What is the purpose ?

Enjoy !

Hi Gerard, the bench seat is wide enough for one to sleep with the back cushion taken away, but the bench pulls out for a double bed and the back cushion put back.
The high locker on the left has a portaloo in plus 2x110Ah leisure Batteries and all electrics, the other is wardrobe plus many cupboards for all the stuff I need food pots and pans etc.
I kept it simple in the rear but serves me OK manual Pump tap water containers etc.

Room for more containers and gas bottles etc simple is best for me.

Sorry Ernst, the lockers above the cab make it easy for me to reach stuff above the front overhead it is sectiond off for storage of light items, me being vertically challenged can't reach stuff it goes to far forward from inside.

Thanks Kim, with the things in the ceiling I actually meant these red-circled things, don't believe you have batteries there...

Actually.... Yours truly is Admin and his name is Ernst :wave:
It was Gerard who asked about the lockers in the ceiling.

I wish you many safe miles, no, that should be kilometres, in your mobile sound studio!
Groeten,

It's almost a pity that I won't be there to meet each other and to have a closer look at the created ambiance.
