8 x 16 wheeler fish house layout?

[duckbuster]

Hello,

I would like to get some input on how most of you have your insides laid out on your houses.

V-Front, do you put your stereo in the V portion with the TV above the burners?

Do you have a dinette in the back with one bunk above? Do you have a bunk or 2 on the walls?

Do you feel a toilet in the V-area is a need? If this is the case do you have your stove area in the middle with TV above that?

On a 16 footer do you have 6 or 8 holes?

Thanks

my father in law has a 16ft v nose and he made a cabinet in the v nose part and installed the 2 burner stove into the counter top and built in the sat rec and the tv above the cook top and built in a spot just right of the tv for the mircowave and put doors on extra shelves then he put full size bed in the back with a single bed has a bunk above the bed he does not have a toilet in it just a 5 gal bucket and uses plastic bags he also has a fold down table to eat off and he only has 6 holes has 2 windows also

I would put bunks in the back with a table and bench in the middle where you can fold down the table so you can turn the table/bench into another bed. I would go with 6 holes (can always run tip ups). In the V I would put the stove and some storage unless you have women out their often then a small bathroom set up would be nice.

I use a 5 gallon bucket with a garbage bag liner. Just use a toilet seat over the top and put the lid on the bucket when done. (place outside when done downloading so it freezes!) I put some cup hooks up in the corner of the house to hang a sheet for privacy when needed.

I have my stove/oven with cabinets in my V-front. I installed a radio and speakers and have my TV up front. I like the set up. I have the double bunks in the back, the bottom one turns into a booth.

look on the ice castle web site. you will need to navigate through an authorized deals web page but they show several diff layouts. The potty is a lot of space(Not bad if you use install in 1/2 the v.) If you have daughters or a few women always around you need the rest room. I have seen in a half the V restroom a catch cover hole also under the potty (bucket w/ seat = luggable loo at Mills FF 9.99) This way you can always utlize the hole if you need to. or use as a closet?

As far as the rest of the house. If you plan to have a stove / oven heater.. make it fit into the V. THe back can be a bunk / dinette. do not make it the entire width of the house unless you are taller than 7' tall. Utilize the extra space for a closet or cabinets. As you can see in the pics above that is perfect. I also like the idea of a window in back at dinette. SOOO many times you are sitting at table and WHISH you could look outside to enjoy the beautifull surroundings. Also go bigger than than the standard 32X20 windows most people install. Can't say enough about being able to see outside while sitting down. You should be able to get at least 6 holes in it. Forgot hinge the bunk so you can fold it up...
