I'm usually full of s--t, but I don't remember except in very "rare"
occurances do we take this tent down until Thursday...That's why they are
flat and are mesh; takes the wind the best....Since I am on the salt right
after Dan at 6:00am.  Dan am I mistaken??????     JD

JD/list,

Over the years many types of trap/tents have been tried. We have setteled on
the flat, mesh type because they do not fly. It takes a very, very strong wind
to make one of these leave. The worst I have seen is a couple of tie downs
pulled. This is the result of an overnight wind that will flaten the toilets,
even when they are full which gives them a lower CG.

We use this type of tarp over our pit area, only have to put it up once. A
good idea is to engineer one side of the tarp to attach to the trailer, keeps
everything within the general area of your pits in case of a wind.
