also
>simple, easy to setup
There might be cases where I would have to set it up on a ferry(allowed where I'm going) so that would be a plus if that would be possible

Hennessy hammocks fit basically all of the criteria you listed. Get the snake skin for added ease of setup.

yes, plenty if all in ones, check rei.com sort by camping hammoks for an idea of whats out there. most are traditional hammocks that require you to sleep on a diagonal to lay flat.
the rei quarter dome air (i think thats what its called) is on clearance for 120ish Us, and has two spreader bars so it is a lay flat not on a diagonal but that makes for less convenient packing because you cant fold the bars.
look for something under 3lbs, should have max weight capacities in the 200-350 lbs range and cost 100-200 us$

Look on craigslist for a used ultralight hennesey or warbonet black bird. Both are under 2 lbs and have nets built into them. They work for taller people and up to like 250 lb. I got mine for like $120 and met an awesome hiker dude. Get a bigger tarp if you want more privacy/rain cover around you I have a 16 foot tarp to make "tent" around it for.complete coverage and year round potential, but require decent trees for the cords. I also spent way to much on 2 down quilts at 0 and 20 degrees that actually work in the middle of summer as well. Good luck on your hammock journey, they take practice but are more customizable and comfy than tents usually are.

Hammocks don't get expensive until you get into quilts
