Hi all
Well I am hoping in a few months time the price of the Cabanon Biscaya Vis-a-Vis may have dropped a couple of hundred pounds. But I have one concern. The 640cm dimension is fine but I am not sure of the footprint from the back to the front of the sun canopy 320cm the main tent width but the canopies footprint is not given By scaling it To the maximum overhang of the canopy it gives me a total of 540cm this is 40cm over the max width for the C&C Club pitch size
What I would love to know is how much does the sun canopy overhang the outside edge of the base of the sun canopy
Your help would be very much appreciated
Regards
Rex
PS Or could the canopy wings be pegged in if required by a manager who sticks rigidly to the rules.you know the ones

Hi Rex,

I have hunted a bit to try and find the information. It's just another one of the bits of information that they don't think to include.  Here is a link to the current catalogue though.

http://www.highbridgecaravans.co.uk/brochures/CabanonTents2007.pdf

and a link to the cabanon site.

http://www.cabanon.com/gb/presentation/frame_quisommesnous.htm

You are probably better off emailing the company directly though, I have done it to outwell, rubens and Sunncamp in the past.  Sunncamp didn't reply.

If you have a look on the table at the end of the brochure, it does seem to suggest that the Sun canopy (depth) is 150cm.

Thank you for you help your a gem. I have the brochure printed of but did not see the bit you found (nothing to do with age ) just small print
All I need now is the price to drop a bit so val will think we are getting a bargain
Thank you again
All the best
Rex

  Hi I think if you check the brochure again, the 150 cms quoted is for the optional sun canopy not the one already attached.Sorry to give you that news but on the positive side I have some friends with a Biscaya 500 and i'm sure the canopy is not as deep as theirs
