Nice awning tent. We have the same I think. Yours looks very symetrical and plumb, ... do you have to adjust if there is rain (flat awning roof?). I struggle with setting a fall on the awning roof and putting all 3 sides on

Key is keeping the awning legs quite high. This makes it more taught when pegging out the 3 sides and makes it easier to drop one side. Drop one leg if it rains during the day. Always drop one leg at night as a precaution and readjust in the morning. Everyone has their own way of doing things but I hate to see the awning looking untidy.

me too!... so, do you have the high side above horizontal? Or still always keep at horizontal or a slight fall on it?

Somewhere in the Auvergne, found this little gem which we have to ourselves. €10 a night if you don’t want to use the shower/compost toilet €20 if you do. Sending this whilst enjoying a fire on our private pontoon
