Sold: DD Superlight Tarp

Post by dgowenlock »

Only used a couple of times - no rips/tears or other damage - just having a clear out in the run up to Christmas.

If the buyer can wait until Christmas I'll include the DD guys and carabiners which I don't have on me now.

19 tough reinforced attachment points: 16 around the sides and corners, and 3 along the centre (ridge line).

Made from ripstop nylon, with 3,000mm PU waterproof coating, and has a taped central seam.

Size: 3m x 2.9m
Colour: Olive green
Weight: 460g (excl. guy lines)

£58 posted in the UK with payment by Paypal F&F or bank transfer.

Someone really should buy this. Mine is many years old and still going strong after hundreds of uses. IMO it's a far better tarp than the Alpkit R@g7. It's bigger, lighter and cheaper and although it has no side tie outs I've never missed them. It also shakes water off easier. Get in you lot.
I'm just going outside ...

Thank you, my thoughts exactly. I think it's very hard to beat for the weight / price - and is better finished than I expected from a mid-market brand like DD. Would love to keep it if I didn't need the cash.

If the deal comes off gents, may I suggest some of these so you can add those extra "mid" tie-out points that Tim doesn't miss? :wink:

I added two to each "half" of my DD Superlight and they make it much easier to lift the middles of the two halves up - loads more room inside. My descriptive powers have failed me, a photo would have been better :wink:

Tim's right though, it's farking enormous. If you gave up (you won't) being a tarpist you could easily sail an ocean-going yacht with it instead.

Apologies for the delay - I'd rather hang on to it as a spare for when friends come camping than lose too much on it.

Apologies for the Christmas delay - yet it is, however I'm not currently with it and won't be able to post for a couple of weeks.
