Hi
I have a Contrail in good conditions ,for sale.
It is the last, third, version of that tent.
It has a "dotted" floor (to reduce mat movement) and comes with my extra rear strut* as can be seen in the photo.
*That ,particularly if used with the front (apex) guyline, also included, adds a lot of wind stability.
Including a new tyvek groundsheet, 6 pegs and delivery , $150.

Franco do you have some more pics of that tent and some weight info? If the OP isn't interested I may be interested. It appears as though TT don't make them any more? Are they replaced with the protrail? Thanks for any extra info.

Hi Dan,
yes the Pro Trail is the new version of the Contrail.
Same as this one :

The specs there are pretty accurate.

Thanks. I have an SS2 which I love but for quick overnighters on my own this type of thing would be perfect and of course remove half a kilo from my weight ;) Anyway not to take the topic away from the OP, keep me informed if he doesn't want your tent.

I only used this one on a few trips ( I have had all of the TT solo tents...).
The last time (I think..) was on the Great Ocean Walk because I wanted to fit two tents in one of the allocated spots.
The Contrail was the only one that did next to the the SS2.
