[nilsino]

Hi, Bought a second hand cockpit canopy, but did not came with the bows to hold the structure.

Here is an image of the Canopy [image][download/file.php?id=3029]

Ive read that there are specs somewhere on the site (I am a member) but cant seem to be able to find it. Any help or direction (even if its an image of yours its much apreciated).


Best,
Nils

For me it does not seem to be original.

Does it contain transverse battens ?
Maybe there is a photo showing the tent installed. Contact the seller to find out how it is intended to be used.

Thanks for your response, I spoke with the seller, he actually never used it so he was unaware of how to install it nor had he pictures of it...

The top of the original cockpit tent is equipped with 3 or 4 transverse wooden battens, about 10 cm wide .When the tent is used the top is hanging over the boom, the battens making the top rectangular and the sides hanging vertical.
Maybe this tent is for another boat?

Make a search for the word "tält" in the forum and you will find o lot of them. The writing is Swedish so you will have to change language.
