I don't have radar on my Hunter 30 so I have to pay close attention to what's going on around me.
On a bright sunny day, when visibility is good and seas are calm, I'll set my autopilot and nap sitting upright in the cockpit, periodically waking up to check my course and scan the horizon.
At night, I will take naps at the wheel and use an egg timer to wake me up every 15 min. or so.
Day or night, while single handling offshore, I wear an inflatable life jacket and tether myself to the boat.
The only time I crawl into the sack is when I'm at the dock or at anchor.
