Dear Andy,

as it happens I do - one of the original Swallow ones.

Bought in 2013, lightly used. If you are interested I will dig it out.

Best wishes

Bill

FYI I am still in the market for a cockpit tent if anyone has one they no longer want.

I am pleased to say that my search is over having sourced a suitable cockpit tent.

Andy,

As new Swallow ones are no longer made, what did you find?

I managed to find a Habitent Sirocco for sale by another BR20 owner. Unfortunately Habitent seem to be out of this business as, I believe, is their namesake Habitents which I think was doing a similar thing out of the USA.
I haven’t yet tried the tent but I am confident that it will serve my purposes well enough.
