Great applications to already great products!!....thanks for thinking out of the box
Hello and thank you for the nice comment! It does work pretty good. Thanks
Great idea! Thanks for sharing. Just what I was looking to add to my T4. Have The Kelty Highroads Shelter, poles, and bungee on order. Can't wait to try out. Thanks again!!
Hello, I am happy to hear your trying it out. That is cool. I think you will like the set-up. The kelty is easy to set up and adds a lot. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
Genius!
Great video!
Hello and thanks for the nice comment! Maybe just a bit unusual, but it works great! Thanks for watching!
It’s funny how some things just line up/work out perfectly.
Great vid!
Hello again, lol, I know - thank goodness. Thanks again for watching.
We used a tarp between the top of the gazelle T4 and the rainfly last weekend. Temp at night was 20's and daytime was low 40's. Worked great. Will definitely try out the Kelty next time. The Backroads is definitely one of my favorite pieces of gear. Thanks for this great idea.
Hello, I was just contemplating a trip and the temps will be below freezing at night, so I will be trying this in these colder temps. (glad to hear it worked for you) I am tempted to add a moving blanket as well - I have heard others mention this. I like the backroads too. Thanks for watching and the nice comment.
Great job!
Thank you so much for watching! Just having fun.
Great ideas! Thanks so much for sharing. You have given me some solid ideas for my setup.
Hello. thanks for the nice comment and thanks for watching!
You are always working on these hacks. Very interesting and informative.
Dave! Do you realize it's been seven years since Maine! Time goes by way too fast. Thanks for watching and being a loyal friend and a subscriber!
Nice hacks!!
Thanks smallprojects! I thought it was a cool alternative so I had to share. Thanks for watching!
Pretty badass set up! I was looking at the Gazelle products but the storage size was too less than ideal. But I’m still considering the Kelty, your videos the only one with it being used while actually camping and with the rain that I could find.
Hello, For the price, the kelty is great and the fact that is packs pretty small makes it easy. Thanks for the nice comment and thanks for watching!
Nice hack! I was trying to figure out how to insulate the roof and you figured it out. Thanks
I have since heard that some folks are using moving blankets to seal the top up - this would be great for cold weather too. Thanks for watching!
@@ChristopherQuest I go camping in Florida often and it constantly rains. Do you have any hack to prevent the T4 from getting wet inside? I don't mind using the 4 poles but I don't want to have the poles far away from the tent because have i limited space with other tents around us. Maybe a way to extend the rainfly over the tent?
@@stevenscop Hello Steven, Wow, you bring up a very good point. If it is hot and raining - and windy - And you don't want the rain fly. I just bought a 6x10 tarp so that I could block more sun with the 4' extra. Keeping a blowing rain out, hmmm I will have to think on that one - let me know if you come up with something, I will let you know if I do. Thanks for watching!
@@ChristopherQuest hi, I only go camping when it's cold so not concerned about the heat but concerned about the rain getting into the t4. There are two ideas I had. #1 is to get a much bigger tarp and put under the rainfly like 12x12 size and use guy lines to extend out or #2 cut smaller pieces of tarp and use velcro to extend the existing rainfly. Any recommendations?
@@ChristopherQuest check out these 2 great gazelle hacks. Maybe we can improve on them. ua-cam.com/video/r9i6JZrBOck/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/VfV-nNl8ej4/v-deo.html
It was interesting watching you, I do the same thing with my stuff. I have a Clam Quickset 6x6 & am getting the Kelty so your idea was the road to Oz I was hoping for, I couldn’t find any specs for the Kelty to confirm. Thanks for the info. Maybe a heavy thermal emergency blanket for the roof, so you can flip it for summer/winter use? The Gazelle is more of what I need now that I have a dog, so I’ll be switching my setup. Thanks again!!!
Hello, I have so much fun using the gazelle and trying different things. Great idea on the reflective blanket, I have also heard people are using moving blankets in winter which should also work. Thanks for watching and the nice comment!
@@ChristopherQuest great hacks. I was thinking about getting the Arcturus Survival Blanket 5ftx7ft with grommets to put under the rainfly during those cold winter days. Do I need a 6x6 instead? Any suggestions besides moving blankets? Canvas Tarp better than poly? Also How did u cut the 8x6 tarp to 6x6 without losing the grommets on that end?
@@stevenscop Hello again Steven, I would suggest a 6x6 and probably something with thickness under the rainfly would be best in winter (so canvas over poly in my opinion) The 5x7 may be short on one side, but will still help. Grommets are usually spaced every 2' but you may need to add a couple as only some mfgs hit the mark. I was lucky with the one in the video. Thanks again for watching! Have Fun!
Christopher its your mates from Australia. Watching your videos inspired me to buy another trailer sailer but now yours has disappeared. Did you sell your Macgregor. I also bought a Bluetti AC200 Max after seeing yours. Yours mates Mick and Carol
Hello Mick and Carol! So cool to hear from you. The Mac is being prepped for the next round of adventures. She will be back soon! I have this huge smile thinking about your new boat! You will have so much fun just getting it all ready for adventure. The Bluetti is the way of the future, it's amazing how well it works with a couple hundred watts of solar attached. Please keep in touch, would love to hear about your quests! Thanks again for watching, much appreciated.
@@ChristopherQuest can't wait to see your next adventures. We couldn't find a Macgregor 26X when we were looking so ended up buying a Hunter Edge 27. Love the roominess like your 26X. The personable way you do your videos are awesome. It's just like we are there with you on board. We find ourselves copying your mannerisms like "Oh Yeah" . Regards Mick and Carol
Forgot to add we love your videos of cooking and your American tucker like hash browns.
@@mickward995 Love that you are enjoying the videos. The Hunter will bring a lot of good times. Oh Yeah! lol Thanks again! You should consider posting some videos of your boat adventures.
@@mickward995 gotta have those crispy hash browns!
Buy a gazelle T4 overland plus tent
Yeah, I guess I could just buy another RV if $ are not important.
