“HI, I attach 3 pictures taken last week-end at Portavadie on Loch Fyne on a windy and wet day. It was the first time we had put it up with really no issues, we have altered the stern strap so as not to cause an obstruction across the back and that has worked well. Thanks for sending the tent so quickly, we are very pleased with the product. Jim”
Thank you again for your help, we would certainly recommend you to fellow mariners.
“The weather was perfect and we found the Habitent fairly easy to erect. We stayed out in the cockpit until almost dark that night, protected from the breeze nicely. It was great to note so many additional design features you’ve added that make it a very good product. We had an LED light hung up inside and it felt very warm and cosy, and it also gave us much more privacy over the weekend. Perfect
“Habitent on a Gibsea 282 in France since 2012, through sun, wind and rain. Garry says ‘my wife has said several times that the Habitent was the best thing we had bought for our trip and now I am forced to agree’. We crossed the channel in early May and up went the Habitent while we went into the canal system. We covered approx. 1600 km and the habitent was not removed until we laid up the boat in September. This year we put up the habitent again on arrival on May 25th and it will stay up again until we leave mid Sept. We are currently tied to a Jetty at Chatillon -Coligny experiencing one of the most severe storms we have ever been in. Torrential rain with 40+ knots. We were not expecting it and the habitat was not secured properly to the boat. Even so, we stayed dry and comfy. Garry Crew”
“I have been using my Habitent for one season in the North of Norway and I have no complaints or comments on how to improve the product. We have an old Gibsea 31 and it is amazing how well it fits our fairly wide cockpit. Christian in Norway”
“Couldn't get to Jersey boat show, too much weather, so we asked our Jersey friends to look at Habitent and approve (or not) the quality. If OK, to buy one for us. They liked it so much they bought one for themselves, and brought ours to Guernsey for us to collect from store Sark. We've used ours this Liberation weekend and we're unreservedly delighted with it. Sark friends, here for the celebrations, liked it and are ordering theirs. A good result!”
Really pleased with the product and my wife is thrilled by the extra space it will give us on damp days ( not that we get many of those in Ireland!!!!)
