Is that what I've been sitting on all these years?

And in the driver's seat, in case you want a nap.

Did you know seat belts (2) are required on the bed in a truck sleeper?

I case that I followed a few years ago went something like this: A
guy
was in his new
boat and left the marina restaurant at night. Wife was sleeping down
below. Man drives
into breakwater at speed; the wife is badly injured hitting her head
on a
bulkhead.. They
sue the dealer for selling a boat and not warning him that its
dangerous.
They sue the
manufacturer for not having seatbelts on the bunks. The wife's case
was
thrown out; I
don't know about the other.

Roughly 5% of fatalities are caused from standing & sitting on the
bow,
transom and rail.
I expect very few, if any, are on sailboats, but its what they are
trained
to look for. I
shudder when I see kids hanging off the bow of a fast powerboat.

Some dickwad sheriff motorboater tried (actually did) give
a friend of mine a ticket for allowing someone to ride on the
bow. They were coming into dock, the sheriff told him
to get off the bow, and mine friend told the guy at the bow
to stay there and finish what he was doing. The judge threw
it out.

Isn't bow riding illegal where you are?


I'm sure she wasn't "bow riding." She was, er, checking the
forestay.
