CRUISING IN CARDIFF

This family of 4 wanted a van that could enable them to camp at the beaches in summer or take to the mountains in the winter. They brought us the van with a “top-only” and enlisted us to complete the interior of the build. We worked with them to develop a floor plan that enabled both seating and sleeping for four. To do this we began with properly placing a few captains chairs from JMG seating. We then developed a dinette seating area that converts to a lower sleeping platform with enough space to still utilize two galleys for food storage and cooking. The dinette seating areas houses our favorite systems; a hydronic heating system for on demand hot water and cabin air from Rixen’s Enterprises and a reliable Victron energy Lithium power system.
