The Skylite Tarp

[gargoyle]

Added a twist to an old standard tarp design. The finished product is an 11' x nearly 12' (11'-10" to be exact).
So its your basic rectangle tarp.
The twist was I added a center panel to allow light in and create more width.
Some of these pics are in the building process, so some tie-outs and the panel pulls aren't all visible. But at the end everything is there.

Black main sections with a yellow skylite. Black for privacy.

Doors can be closed.

Tarp can be turned for a different look..

Panel pulls in use. The placement of the pulls works in either ridgeline configuration.

Of course I like different!! So here's the tarp in whelen mode.
In whelen mode, theres a 12' ridge with 6' side wall and a 6' diamond tip/porch. And the panel pulls work here as well.

I've got the tarp closed down tight here with the panel pull being used.
The tie outs align so you can use them to secure the ends with a biner.The diamond tip can be opened fully into porch mode if you so desire.

Still in whelen style, with the doors pulled back.

Finished weight is 24 oz., including the stuff sack and panel shockcords w/ mittenhooks.
Dimensions: 11' x 11'-10"
Numerous tie outs and panel pulls (20 total, 16 tieouts, 4 panel pulls)

Great looking tarp, Gargoyle.

The tarps around here just seem to be getting bigger by the day and made from increasingly lighter and more expensive materials.

What's the MSRP on the Skylite tarp?

Cheers

Thanks BW. MSRP is negoitable. I did a special order on the yellow so that added some to the total. I like the idea of custom one off originals. Team colors, special color combos (it could be three colors) and the stripes could be different sizes. But ballpark would be $160 + special order color.
If your interested in something unique, pm me.

Now that's a slick idea! Way to go Gargoyle!

Thanks Hawk, always a challenge to tweak the standard into something unique. NC State needs a G Tarp. This would make a great tailgaters tarp. Lots of options.

It will be at the next Oregon Hang.

Yes it will Gary.
