Ship cabins and weather

Recommended Posts

Is there a trick to building structures on your ship that will keep out bad weather?  I have been trying to construct a cabin that will allow the use of fires in snow but to no avail.

I fitted glass panels   around  and over the stern/helm but   they do not at the moment  keep out rain  or  snow .. that's been reported and is under investigation. However i  fitted either side of the helm  a brazier and enclosed each  three sides with a slight overhang at the front.. the trick is  when you see bad weather approaching,  light the braziers then ...  they will  stay  alight for a long while after the weather sets in, only  going out in a severe blizzard.  You cannot  light them when its  raining.:)

Check out the thread about   Bongo-bongo and others of  mine to see some of  my crazy,  but  practical ship designs :S
