Hello,
I've bought a second hand Cabanon Barbados, it's a 2010 model apparently and it seems from the web photos that it's changed a bit this year (2011).

I want a side panel, and maybe two if I can get a good price but I need to know if the current one (2011) will fit and if it does where I can get one.

I'v only seen a Guandeloupe side panel listed so far, is it the same thing? If not will it fit?

I've got a pyramid 6 that'll put on eBay when I get a chance but I wondered if the canopy from that might fit my new Barbados.

Advice, ideas and help would be really gratefully received.

Thansk
Carrie

Congratulations on your new Barbados (lovely tent!). If it's a 2010 model it'll have the Cabanon logo on the roof panel. If it's the older style logo, beside the doorway, it's a 2009 model or earlier. The 2011 model is easy to identify at the moment because it's green! It doesn't really matter, regarding the side panels, although you can sometimes get a bit of shade variation.

They've changed the side panels this year so there is no longer any pvc mudwall to the bottom edge, so if you want some to match your tent it might be an idea to ring around a few dealers to see if anyone holds any of the older type?

I've a sneaky suspicion that eyelets on the P6 canopy don't line up properly with the Barbados poles and, even if they did, I think you'd have a bit of a gap because there's already a rain canopy on the barbados,which is wider at the top than at the sides (if you see what I mean).

Also, doesn't the P6 just have 2 x doorway poles (which the canopy fits over)? The Barbie has 2 doorway poles, then another 2 for the porch, so not the same fit at all, unless you can somehow adapt it.

Hello there,

Thank you very much, especially about the new one not having a mud flap, I can see that now on the photos.

Jings your good!

I thought you'd only need one but I've seen photos with 2, I think that'd make it too dark, like the P6 i when the canopy is up.

Thanks again,

Carrie
