Help with TENT

[Farman17]

Do any of you tent owners know of some trick to sealing the top of the tent to the top of the sail pannel. Just got it today and experiancing a little frustration. NOT MUCH... just a little. Please help

I would like to know also. It's never leaked on me but it's never exactly stayed where I put it.

I have always put the elastic cord in the crack between the top of the truck and the front of the sail panel. Then, when you hook the front straps under the sides of the truck, it pulls that cord tight and stays put.

that's what the Texas crew, and i, at the Poteet GTG did with sbutch6969s' AV. we helped put his tent on the AV. once in place it seemed very secure.

O.K. I must be a retard or just been out in the sun too long but... Is there any way you could elaborate on the elastic thingy.

I can't say it any better.... that's the way it works... the front/top edge of the tent slips right down in there.... you should have about 3/16" gap
