one9marine Posted February 10, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 10, 2017 we have a cruise on Allure and i've got the urge to hang a hammock. Has anyone ever done this? If yes do you have pictures? How did you attach to supports? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewenix Posted February 10, 2017 #5 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Not on Allure, but we hung one on Oasis a few months ago. Hung it just like the other person did in the pictures above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken at the beach Posted February 10, 2017 #7 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Very cool. Ever get any grief from RC? We've done this at least half a dozen times and no one has said a thing. On one cruise. Our cabin steward was showing it to another steward from down the hall. They seemed impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted February 10, 2017 #8 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Here's a picture from the Freedom. On other classes it's not as easy to tie off the hammock as it is on Oasis class. Note the "C" clamp that I attached to the steel beam so that I could use that to tie off the hammock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsdroid Posted February 10, 2017 #9 Share Posted February 10, 2017 A few weeks ago on Liberty. 😊 I tried to get a lounger, but they wouldn't get one for me, so this was my back up. I took C clamps, but would up not really needing them as clamps. Sent from my HTC6545LVW using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daze6399 Posted February 10, 2017 #10 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Anyone ever used/tried a bearbutt hammock? I think they're probably pretty close to what has been shown....ahhh who am I kidding, I'm gonna take one and try anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fouremco Posted February 12, 2017 #15 Share Posted February 12, 2017 once I set up the pool there isn't much room left for the hammock !!!!!!!!!!! Besides, the hammock hogs would probably grab it anyway to be close to the pool. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skiiergirl Posted March 11, 2017 #21 Share Posted March 11, 2017 How do you suggest to hang one on a balcony on RD class or Voyager class balcony? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paesano1014 Posted December 27, 2017 #22 Share Posted December 27, 2017 To those who successfully hung hammocks on the balconies: what size hammocks are you using? I am going to order a hammock on amazon. There's a single person that is 108 inches in length or a double that's 118 inches in length. I would love the double but ultimately I want to hang with comfort and not become a sandwich Would either of these lengths work comfortably?

Roadsofa Posted December 27, 2017 #23 Share Posted December 27, 2017 If someone could post some pics of their mounting/attaching method it would be greatly appreciated. I have seen mention of C-clamps but any other methods would be awesome. I have to admit, I can be creative sometimes but this is truly awesome. Thanks.

GWBonthego Posted December 27, 2017 #24 Share Posted December 27, 2017 this one with the "looped" straps worked perfectly -- very simple to hang it between the balcony rail post and divider. (of course the extra width of the suite balcony was helpful) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
