Hi

We have recently bought a Pennine Fiesta 2+2, year 2000, it looks as if there should be flexible poles to hold out the plastic windows on the kitchen and bedrooms, so that you can have ventilation without the rain coming in. Does anybody have some that they could measure for me as I am not sure how tight they should be? I can't find any images with them in except, just a video of them being put in on a new Fiesta.

Thanks

Melanie

aprox 1.2metres in length,if there is a kite shop near you then get some poles there,rather than pay through the nose with "made to measure" then with any remainder ....make a kite!!

As lissabut says, you can use any tent bendy/foldy fibre glass poles, just think the kitchen one is longer than the bedroom ones from memory, not by much though, maybe 1.4 meters?

Hi

Thanks for the replies, I bought an Outbound Sierra 1 for £7 on Ebay, we used the poles for the windows just had to take off a section on each, and then suspended the tent under the bed board to make useful storage.

We have the opposite problem to you - we have two flexible white poles that came with the camper, but no fixings outside of our kitchen window to attach them!!!!!

I can unzip and roll up the kitchen window which leaves the flynet, which is good, but when it rains there is no protection to stop the rain blowing in.

I did post on here when we first bought the camper as we thought we may have being missing something obvious that we should be doing, probably still are!

We used some old flexible poles from a beach shelter. Where two bits had to be joined, gaffer tape did the job perfectly. If I recall correctly, I contacted Pennine for replacements and whilst they weren't extortionatley priced, the standard rate of postage the Pennine insisted oin charging made them expensive.
