Boat tent kit or ready made

Boat tent available as a set of pre-cut parts including everything you need to sew it yourself, with comprehensive instructions for £365 or ready sewn for £645. Made from PU coated Nylon which is quick to dry and light weight. The tent packs up very small and weighs about 2.5kg. You will need a rope bridle under your gunwale and a boom crutch to fasten it onto your Wayfarer.
How long does it take to sew together? It takes me about two and a half days so expect to take a weekend plus a few evenings. A standard sewing machine with straight and zig zag stitches is all you need. I say all you need but you will need quite a bit of space to lay out the parts.
These tents have been used in very testing conditions and they stand up remarkably well. The high boom position gives sitting headroom on the centre thwart. It is so quick to put up it is worth taking on a day out for a lunch stop if the conditions are wet and blustery. With just the front half of the tent erected the crew can be snug and warm.
