Here's the build concept for quick deploy + misc ;
Keder Rail attachment.
Repurpose an old rain fly to extend the 6' wide top flap up over the center point of the roof to insure no water drips down the door side of the trailer > it will be pulled taught by a couple lines attached to existing pad eyes on the belly band on the far side.....also extend the bottom valence below the zip door by ~6" across the 8' width.
Add 2 additional interior ceiling hang straps to support a ~54" cross bar to hang wet clothes or whatever.
McNett's Seam Grip mixed 50% w/toluene applied to all orange clip webs @ their stitch points & any other possible stress/leak locations.
Water/weatherproof exterior w/303 Fabric Guard (best in the biz, only coating approved by Sunbrella)
Ditching the factory duffle for a 195cm ski bag for this reason > The fiber glass pole's ferrules will be taped at various locations so they break down to ~5' sections - they will lay flat and be tied together at the valence below the zip door upon breakdown while the unit remains attached to the Keder Rail. The unit will be "rolled up" from the bottom, slid off the Keder Rail, then stuffed in the long bag which is waterproof. This method also facilitates deployment....All good "Theory" of course HaHa!! I'll keep you posted as to how it flies...Once again, appreciate the inspiration - have been a wicked slacker as of late on the
Scamp....
