Hi,

This is my first post, so bear with me........

Tried to erect our brand new Kampa Hemsby 6 this afternoon, all was going well until it rained.........We'd got all the bendy poles in, sorted the arc shaped poles for the extra side room, put together the poles that hold the side door open.   And found we had 2 super long rigid poles left over.  These are not mentioned in the instructioins anywhere.

So, does anyone have one of these tents and know where these poles go??

Thanks in advance

Deb

Don't think so, the porch bit seemed to be doing fine with the bendy pole.

These ones are rigid.......and very long.

Gonna get it out again tomorrow, and hope it doesn't chuck it down again.

No Soupachef I think alijns means the main door porch, I dont know your tent but most have a larger main door which is normally square. If you unzip this door and then look at the bottom edge you will most probably find 2 eyelets, pop these 2 long poles in the eyelets and run a guy line from each pole outwards and the door then becomes a covered porch or sun canopy.

Hope this helps

Found out what they are for

They run along the length of the tent on the inside just above the windows. And OMG what a difference they make to the shape of the tent.

Can't wait to get out there and use it for real  now......
