nice little tent, but doesnt give a lot of confidence in the cabanon pegging points on the groundsheet?

Although I love my Cabanon tents, the inner tent pegging system is a weakness with them. I have not seen inner fixings like those before though, it looks like you just peg through the ground sheet, so not a difficult fix.

I think they're the usual pegging points, but the owner has reinforced them with duck tape. We had to do this on one of the bedroom pods in Lana when we got her as the pegging point had torn away from the groundsheet part of the bedroom.

This is a major weakness with Canabnon tents, just ask Bill (9Iron)

Actually, I have quite a few torn Cabanon inner pegging points. I had never thought about just cutting them out and taping over the hole. This would be better than trying to repair the uneven hole round the eye. And I don't peg any of them down anyway.

Ebay sale cabanon repair kit

as said above this is the only real problem with cabanon tents and looking at the repair kit above that sold on e bay cabaonare well awae of it

I have got one ripped pegging point on one of my cabanon tents and i have never bothered with it as it never gets used and it just has a strip of tenatious tape over the inside to seal it

good idea to take them off and glue a patch

As raf48 says, this is a weakness with Cabanons or it certainly is with the Guadeloupe. I bought mine from a very good supplier who sent me free of charge a couple more pegging rubbers but you need to cut the old pegging point off as close to the groundsheet as possible and then glue the new one on it using Loctite 406. If it isn't one of the corner ones I wouldn't bother. You do need to have the four corners pegged down though to make pitching nice and easy.

Never heard of those two, but whatever it was someone got it for £45.

Wonder if it's someone on here?
