Hi everyone

I have just bought the black shrimp from our local dealer here in Helsinki. I was looking for a bargain and he pointed out some display models that were on sale and told me the Robens was the best of the bunch and that i could have it for 150 euro, he told me the original retail price was 358 euro.

Anyway i have checked the tent and all seems fine. However there was no manual with the tent and i cant find anything at the robens website. I would like the pitching instructions and perhaps some basic info about my new tent.

Me and my wife intend on spending 2 weeks at the end of July in the snowdonia mountains.

Please help if you can

Many thanks in advance, Peter 

Hi Peter

welcome to the site, although i don't know anything about your particular tent i am sure someone will be along soon who will be able to advise you. Have you looked on the internet?

Thanks Edel i have searched everywhere for peoples experiences.

Peter, this tent looks very similar to the balck shrimp and there are pitching instructions provided (although they are rather brief).

Hi Paullyn

And thank you for all of your efforts and help with my problem. You have been very, very helpful.

I took out the poles again last night and i have 2 short 1 long, so i assume it is the 2005 model. I notice you say that you keep the shrimp as backup for stormy weather. How has it performed for you in the past Paullyn.

Again, thanks to all that replied and offered advice.

Peter
