Airstream Water Yacht

Why should a Land Yacht be stuck on shore? Just mount an Airstream onto a pontoon boat, gather a hearty crew and cast off!

The bed in the 23' Safari is indeed 48" wide, which makes the rear interior bed & bath design just like the 19' Bambi. This was confirmed by the AS home office.

Thanks for the advice. Problem is, we are looking to buy a brand new unit and the 22' doesn't come with the couch option. Have you suggested your design to Airstream? I think it is a terrific option.
