Hi All

We're new to the site but been using our Conway Trio for two years, We've never had to break it down wet yet.  so if we do, does anyone have any tips on drying out the canvas?  Does it have to be done straight away?

You've got a few days grace! If it can't be put up again straight away try to open it up nd air the canvas. Mould once it strikes is dreadful

You can leave it for a couple of days, but  do you have a garage, if not ,if the day is a bit iffy then open it and put some plastic over the roof etc. but leave it so the air can get around and it souldnt take to long

We had to packup wet twice last year. We just have room in the drive to open up the main cabin. We have dried the awning in the dining room over the table and chairs, its not too bad if you seperate the front panel from the roof and sides. We do this when dry anyway, it also makes folding up a lot easier.
