Hi Everyone

After a door zip failure on our 2007 model BL6 we are getting a replacement from Yeomans (not around the top corner, at the bottom of the door).

Replacement will be a BL6 2008 model. We've noticed it comes with a different internal storage pocket system on the bedrooms but is there any other differences anywhere?

Cheers

Yes the bedrooms are now zipped together and can be opened into one very large bedroom.

Also the bedroom pods used to have a red and green toggle and hoop arrangement for fixing to the top of the tent.  Now some of those togggles have been replaced by clips with adjustable straps so you can clip the corner of the bedroom to the top of the tent and then adjust the tension manually to get the best bedroom shape.  This is better than the toggle solution from 2007.

Cant remember what other changes I noticed when I was looking at it at the NEC earlier in the year.

Re-awakening this thread because it compared the 2007 to 2008 model. So can someone add what the 2009 changes to the Bear Lake 6 are?

I have the 2008 version and can't see any differences between this one and the 2009 version

Maybe they will bring out an updated version later in the year?

Hi

Just a quick side note for Justin Parker, Ive still got that spare pole section you wanted for your Wolf Lake.

Regards

Gary Cross
