When our tent got very wet, it dried fine in the garden. However, the guys too much longer to dry. We have a georgia XL with a ludicrous number of guys. Is there a recommended way of making guys easy to put on and off the tent, other than tying half a billion knots? Would using some sort of carabina or clamp be ok??(suitably rated of course).

I cant personaly see a problem using some kind of clips or carabinas...but half a billion wont come cheap!

I would think youd have to remove them every time before packing the tent tho, to avoid risk of damage by the metal on the flysheet!
