I have a Hennessy with the "factory" insulation system but intend to replace the foam with a military poncho liner which I expect will work as good if not better and compress smaller

MP,

I bet you could use something like this for your needs?
Secure with Velcro/Snaps etc.

This weekend, I accompanied my wife to Bed, Bath and Beyond.  (NO!  I don't usually go by myself!!!   Tongue)

While waiting on her to complete her shopping, I noticed a "sheet hugger" product with clips at each end.  I'm wondering if these might work for you.

MP, I just clicked on the link, and it loaded for me Huh

In any case, go to Brigade Quarter Masters.
Your looking for their Thinsulate Poncho liner, about 82" x 59", made out of lightweight rip-stop. Looks like you could do a lot with it?

MP,

That's the one I was talking about. I can see some multiple uses for that item with a little ingenuity?

If nothing else it would make a good emergency type blanket/ warm weather "sleeping rig" Wink

I'm sure you could use Velcro/snaps to secure in hammock somehow?
