I have one only used it once. How do you keep it from blowing away.
Sometimes it feels like I live in a Pat McManus story!

I would use the spud as a stake an attach a rope to the top. Don't think bungees were invented yet.  :roflmao: :roflmao:

Just used mine yesterday. I also have another for a spare. The one I used is getting pretty beat up but still useable. As far as keeping it from being blown away I use a small old runner sled. I have a tote box with lid mounted on the sled for my seat. With the sled inside straddling the ribbing it will not go anywhere short of hurricane force winds with my heavy butt sitting in there. LOL. To bad they are no longer made.

I still have one. It was a good deal for the price. Just need to screw it down with a couple lag screws with big washers or it wants to blow away every time you stand up.
