This shelter features durable fibreglass poles, a waterproof base, a 70D flysheet with a 1500mm hydrostatic head, and colour-coded poles for easy setup.

Troubleshooting

Shelter is not stable in the wind

Ensure all guy lines are fully extended and securely pegged into the ground. Check that the poles are correctly inserted into their designated points. Consider using additional or heavier-duty pegs for better anchoring.

Water is seeping through the base or flysheet

Verify that the flysheet's hydrostatic head is not exceeded. Ensure seams are intact. For minor leaks, seam sealer may be applied. If the waterproof coating has degraded, consider a re-waterproofing treatment.

Poles are difficult to insert or remove

Ensure poles are straight and not bent. Check for any debris or obstructions within the pole sleeves or connectors. Apply a silicone-based lubricant if necessary, ensuring it is suitable for outdoor gear.

Colour-coded poles are faded or unclear

Refer to the instruction manual or product images for pole colour identification. Clean poles gently to improve visibility of colours. Mark poles with permanent marker if colours are difficult to distinguish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Regatta Beach Shelter is designed for straightforward assembly. Identify the colour-coded poles and corresponding sleeves on the flysheet. Insert the poles into their respective sleeves and secure them to the shelter's base. Once the main structure is up, extend the guy lines and peg them firmly into the ground, ensuring the shelter is taut and stable. The bright guy lines also serve as a tripping hazard warning.

Compatibility: This shelter is intended for use on sand, grass, or other relatively soft ground surfaces where pegs can be securely inserted. It is compatible with standard camping pegs, though heavier-duty pegs may be advisable in firmer soil.

Care: To maintain the shelter's condition, always clean it after use. Allow the shelter to dry completely before packing it away to prevent mildew. Wipe down poles and fabric with a damp cloth; avoid harsh detergents. Store in a cool, dry place. For the flysheet, a 1500mm hydrostatic head rating means it can withstand light water pressure, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to leaks. Reproofing may be necessary over time to maintain water resistance.
