@ependydad I can easily see where one could disagree with my 1/2 bath and outdoor kitchen thoughts By no means do I think I'm 100% right.
I did not start out with these opinions. I though 1/2 bath would be great,but I should have given more thought to the plumbing end and the tanks! LOL
The ironic thing about not liking the outdoor kitchen is I do all my cooking outside. Maybe I'm just an old dog that can't learn new tricks.
I set up my outdoor kitchen with grill,griddle deep fryer etc.. I set my kitchen up where I want it (under the awning when need be) vs. at the rear of the trailer. (where I never want it to be) a few trips we are just hoteling it and on the go and I do no cooking at all.
Ultimately my problem is I carry too much stuff including outboard motor,on board genset,washer dryer etc. I am constantly needing storage space.
I prefer just plain storage vs. dedicated compartment like an outdoor kitchen.
Even the 1/2 bath is not needed for my crew most of the time. Again that space can be used for other things.
2 kitchens and 2 baths is not efficient use of space when there is only 400 sq ft. total. Where am I going to put my outboard motor?! LOL...of course we need that.
For the record I have a camping buddy with an outdoor kitchen. I enjoy hanging out at his outdoor kitchen area. I really can see how the kitchens and 1/2 baths can be convenient and beneficial they are just not for me.
