MyFishFinder.com Just like iceshanty but warmer
my guess is that it will get worse in time. is this new? If so, I would contact the people that you bought it from.
Hey everyone. So i just noticed in my hut that theres a hole in where the hub adaptor is. Looks like it was punched out but was in the wrong spot and was moved. Will this get worse if so how do i fix itThanks
Funny thing is, It is brand new but it was a replacement shelter from my warrenty lol ByteN2it would you happen to have any pictures on your process?
I’m in the process of repairing/reinforcing all the hub points on one of my shelters-5 seasons of battling wicked winds has taken its toll. Adding big washers will work as long as you never plan on taking your hub shelter down and putting it in a bag-the washers prevent the hub poles from folding up like they should so you can roll up & pack. I’ve now have two pieces of 2” wide nylon web strap 6” long reinforcing inside & out at each hub. I melted 3/8” holes through the webbing and set #2 brass long shank grommets in them & now working on stitching the webbing together. I used super high strength spray adhesive to place the webbing and it’s holding great on its own but want the added strength of sewing them together in place-hopefully this will keep the shelter going a few more seasons as it’s a nice size(quickfish 3) Should be ready to go at 1st ice in a few weeks.
You deserve an award for making a hub shack last 5 years. I used mine one day and never again.
10 years on my Clam Base Camp. That thing has been through hell and back. I reinforced the support pockets by sewing them up with 100# braided fishing line and it didn’t need it. It was a preventative thing on my part. That thing has been used a ton. Has gotten caught in the wind and went for a ride, no cracked windows, no broken poles, just a bit faded.
I have about the same time on my Clam Base Camp. No issues other than the black out inside needing a touch up.
