How are you finding the maui mr fish? We bought one at end of last season and only managed a night in her. We loved it and am hoping we'll feel the same when we use her fully this year. Have you put anything on it to stop fading because i love the colour and want to keep it bright?

We've not got a Maui, although I'd love one one day!

We bought an orange Colorado 5 from Go in the Boxing Day sale last year. Pitched for the first time on Sunday. Got an Iowa 6 to pitch in the same colour too, but ran out of time.

I'd not thought about a way to stop the colour fading, but having said that, considering the colour, it's probably not a bad idea!

Sorry mr fish, i misread your post. We got ours for 500 quid last year at yeomans. There were loads of polycottons in the sale on the sunday morning but by sunday aft they'd nearly all gone so we had the last one of these left. Hubby didnt like the colour at first but loves it now. I love the colour. You dont see many of them though on campsites.
