Hi
Just got back from a very wet night camping in the Lake District.
Unfortunately our Outwell Montana 4 leaked like a sieve along the seams.
The tent is approx 10 years old but hasn't been heavily used so the fabric looks OK.
Is it worth trying to seal the seams or do we buy a new tent ?
Any advice appreciated !
Cheers
Jen

Thanks
We've just found some Outwell seam sealer so we'll try that first.
