Annie and Ronan are keen surfers and dog lovers. Big Jim is named after Annie’s grandfather, who had a proper adventurous spirit. 

Solid bulkheads made from air dried, seasoned oak in the front, middle and rear of the cabin give a beautiful gypsy carriage aesthetic while providing so much stiffness that the rest of the cabin structure can be kept very light weight. The shaker style doors are made from Valchromat, a high performance organic particle board, with wonderfully textured brass hardware.

As well as having room for surfboards and the dogs, Big Jim will also double up as a mobile office. A high-capacity electrical system, mobile 4G WIFI and two floating desks allows both Annie and Ronan to stay productive, wherever they’ve parked.

For comfort in the evenings, we have squeezed in a full size pull-out double bed, heater, LPG hot water shower, oven/grill with 3 burner hob, full size sink, composting toilet, 100l water tank and pull-out 12v fridge. 

Big Jim is well set up for all-season adventures. He is fully insulated, with a 4KW diesel heater, integrated thermal blinds and several fans and vents. And what makes him suitable for winter also helps to keep cool in summer, too- making him equally at home in the Alps, the Scottish Highlands or the Portuguese coastline.

We can’t wait to see this beast following in the original Big Jim’s footsteps.
