Buying a used shanty
« on: Dec 02, 2004, 09:56 AM »
I am going to look at a used Clam shanty today.  The guys wants 75 bucks and I think that it is a Clam 2000.  Not a flip but more of the popup kind.  What should I look to make sure that it is good condition?  Any replys would be greatly appreciated. 

No matter what it has to be better than sitting on a bucket when its sleeting out....

Make sure the canvas has no holes in it and that it is not dry rotted.

Check the palstic sled or bottom to make sure of no holes.  Make sure none of the stitching is coming lose.
