I have a Force Ten CN that has some spark holes in the nylon fly. Mostly this tent is used by my daughter as a play tent but I would like to fix it - just in case... (I�m bothered that it is not in good nick!).

The holes are tiny, would this work

You can get patches that stick on the tent.

These would match

Just cut to size and put on both sides. I have used them on a tarp.
The CN mk3 has new flysheets available but they are expensive.

Thanks. This is a replacement fly, the rest of the tent is over 40 years old. The original fly delaminated (this one is made differently). We have 2 F10s. The other one is quite a new Jaffa I got for a song on eBay, I love them (I may need help 😂).

I have a CN and was watching a Jaffa on fleabay but I think I would end up divorced if I got another tent. I do need a 1 man though .....

The Jaffa is worth it... (my husband almost understands my tent obsession!).

Vango are canny. MK3 cotton flysheets have been unavailable as spares for about three years. I would buy a nee Jaffa fly for my CN.
