Tarptent Bowfin 1s - Reduced

Post by Richpips »

Another from my extensive shelter collection. :oops:

Used for one night only.

Tarptent Bowfin 1s Tent

Very similar to the Phoenix phreerunner of old. Weighs a smidge under 1kg on my kitchen scales.

Seams sealed and guys added.

Came with 2 pegs, but I've added some others for the guys.

This video explains its features - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSCcpfo ... l=Tarptent

£220 posted please.

I think you might need to be from north of the border to understand that one... 😉

Surprised this hasn't been snapped up, lovely bit of kit. If I didn't already have a Southern Cross I'd be all over it :cool:
(sorry)
We go out into the hills to lose ourselves, not to get lost. You are only lost if you need to be somewhere else and if you really need to be somewhere else then you're probably in the wrong place to begin with.

Hi. I may be interested in the Tarptent if it is still available.
