Hi All,

Does anybody have a problem with the cabin zip tension, no matter how we erect the cabin,  the zip will not close again after the initial opening and the zip faces move apart at the base.

Sorry I can't help but we are hoping to collect a used Venus within the next week or so, so perhaps we will find out.

Hi we had this happen to us
and had a big gap where drafts came in beside/under the bed.

What we found was that the canvas was not square on trailer, only way we cured it was undo all the elastic bungies and start at A frame end and pull canvas (both ways) towards entrance to the cabim.

Hope that make sense

Love our Venus enjoy yours macaw

Hi macaw, thanks for the advice we'll try that next time out. The draft really does whistle through when you can't shut the door down all the way.   We originally wanted to use her without the awning sometimes times, for a weekend, but can't without a door that shuts. Best regards.
