Sealander camper, yes or no?

It can sleep three reasonably comfortably and it's highly customizable. The only thing that might be a disadvantage is that it's not made for deep ocean or turbulent waves. But I thin it would be good to take a half dozen people into the middle of a large lake or ocean bay and just spend the day relaxing in the sun or diving into the water.

This boat wouldn’t last a day on Tampa Bay, let alone the intracoastal. What happens when a storm kicks up? It looks like it costs $20,000...my advice...spend $5,000 on a good used travel trailer and $15,000 on a good used boat that has enough power to get you out of trouble fast. Seriously...don’t put yourself and your family in this thing.

I couldn't agree more! I've been in small to medium lakes in which that thing would be a deathtrap in a storm (much less Bays and the IntraCoastal!

Probably a better idea to buy a Time Share ... milk that much money out of you much more slowly for the same amount of value and satisfaction.

Ted Cruz may be leaving Politics, I know he is qualified to sell Timeshares and soon to be available to do just that.

Other than that I wouldn’t let a family member in it or on it while it was in the water.

Looks like a popper for a shark-line.

Perhaps the thing is water tight when the doors are closed. Hit a storm or the wake of a large passing boat and it turns into a large floating hamster ball for humans.

interesting design. Looks like it would be great for lakes. I would check out comments from people who have bought them.

I think a pontoon boat with a tent enclosure would be better.
