When river boat pilot Captain Joshua John Ward found the grass-filled mattresses on his boat too hot in the summer, he decided to make a cool and comfortable cotton rope hammock to use on his boat. After several uncomfortable designs, Cap"n Josh made a hammock using wooden spreaders without knots. This original design has proven to be so comfortable, that it"s still used in Pawleys Island"s popular hammocks, over a century later. Pawleys Island continues to use the highest quality materials when making their traditional all-cotton rope, spun polyester rope, and DuraCord® hammocks. Their custom-designed stretcher bars are cut from seasoned Carolina red oak, then steamed, bent, drilled, sanded, and varnished to impart a comfortable sway to the hammock and to spread the rope evenly for optimum stability. * Hand-woven for unmatched quality * Room for 3 or more; 450-lb. weight capacity * Bed dimensions: 6 ft. 10 in.
