So I got a new bare bones 8X12 skiddy incoming. Not aluminum but wood framed. It’s spray foamed with 4 windows. Other than that it’s a blank canvas. I have a sheet of rubber flooring ready to go. No holes are drilled. I plan to paint the spray foam bright white to keep it looking bright. Don’t plan on putting permanent bunks in it. If I want to sleep in it I have a nice cot with a mattress pad. I don’t want too much mounted permanently as I want to be able to have flexibility to change things out easily. It will also serve as a bunk house in the summer months at the lake property.
Not sure what kind of power I need or want. I’d rather not deal with a generator. I’m thinking a lithium house battery of maybe 20 or 30 ah with a solar charging system. Won’t need to run much other than lights that I can think of. Going to use my DeWalt branded buddy heater for heat. That has USB charging ports for phones and a bright led light in the handle as well as a fan that all run off the DeWalt battery. I will use the fishing pedestal seats out of the pontoon for fishing seats so I will mount the the plates in the floor to accept those. I’m waffling on furing out the walls and putting some kind of finish sheeting up but I also do not want to add a bunch of unnecessary weight.
Don’t plan on putting it on the ice this year so I will have all summer to dial it in. Any ideas and suggestions are welcome. I don’t know much about solar systems so I’ll have to go to Youtube college on that.
