Still a proud owner of this relic... wondering if anyone knows who it was made by and if a replacement tub is anywhere to be found? The poles and shelter itself are in great shape... but the cover and the tub are pretty rough.
Very hesitant to upgrade because of how incredibly light this shelter is!

Pictures would help . Especially the pole bracket . Dimensions as well . If I had to guess I would say Clam ..as alot of BPS and Cabelas Hubs are very similar.
Also could be a Rapala ..as I see your from ON.

Here are photos of the hut - mind you these were in its fairly original condition years ago LOL

Seems very Clam Corp/outdoors to me
Maybe PM IS member Monticatgeek he is all things Clam.

Your hut looks similar to my 2-person Clam Trap Guide - old hut. Brackets for the bars look similar and orientation length wise is similar. Windows are different. My hut has 2 removable seats. I cannot tell from your photo if yours has seats.

I am thinking a original nanook sled would work for a replacement. only thing that might be different is the hole placement for were the frame and tent attach to the sled. that is fixed by simply drilling new holes if needed. here is the one I think might work: https://shop.clamoutdoors.com/nanook-base.html . the dimensions are 35 inches wide by 61 inches long. if your sled is the same dimensions then it would work. only problem I see is that the original poster is in Canada and shipping to there would be more than the house is worth.

Look for a used clam trap pro. or used clam scout with scout pole set up making it narrower folding length wise over sled
-
Look for a used clam scout then turn the sled 90* and use your hardware on it.
that wouldn't work. doing that would only work if the original poster had a Legend model house and not what basically looks like a nanook model from the picture.

That's a very old sled they used these on the Genz fishing system set-up. My friend has the same sled and it has the Fish Trap pro on it. with scout hardware and canvas you could change it into a scout with scout poles/bracket making it lighter and narrower as it folds over sled length wise.

If you have the dimensions that will narrow your search
