I am looking for a used full length underquilt (at or below a 20 degree comfort rating).
Also, I am looking for a tarp with doors, and a tarp sleeve.
Thank you,
Charles

Charles, I have a 12' UGQ Winterdream silpoly tarp that I can offer you.
Dark olive, has panels pulls which were spaced for a Ridgerunner, can be used with internal poles on the ends, split ring tie-out points, stuff sack. No tie-outs / cordage...everybody has their own opinion about what is the 'best' system. No poles included as I need those for another tarp. This one is 2 years old and has seen some use in my backyard but is in great shape. $115 shipped

Thank you "Canadark".
It seems like it could work well for covering two hammocks side-by-side.
... I am fairly new to hammock camping, but really enjoying it, so I am starting to get hammocks for my whole family !
I have just a few questions for my education...
Is it "20D 1.1/OZ SILPOLY" (20.6 oz), or "15D .93/OZ SILPOLY Membrane" (16.4 oz) ?
Does the tarp come with linelocs (I think those are pretty straight forward for adding guy lines) ?
Have you already seam sealed the panel pulls ?
Does it come with the "door snaps" ?
Sincerely,
Charles

Hey Charles,
It's the 20d 1.1 silpoly. The tarp in the stuff sack with no tieouts weighs 23.9 oz. The stuff sack is a pretty beefy one; if you are weight conscious, I'm sure you could come up with a lighter one.
No Linelocs...split rings
Panel pulls seam sealed: yes, by me, and I did a good neat job of it
Door snaps: no
Two hammocks side-by-side would be a tight fit, by the way. The tarp is really designed for single occupancy

Thank you for your response.
Your tarp would be for my two children, who are still fairly small (about to turn 9 & 11).
(I got a 32" spreader bar for them to sleep side-by-side)
Since I'm carrying the bulk of the weight, I am trying to be weight conscious.... Which is one of the motivators to share a tarp between the two of them.
I'm only familiar with my current lineloc guy outs, so would have to look into tying options... What method do you (personally) use to tie it up (and down) ?
In your picture, there is a cord running below the doors... Does that cord strictly serve the purpose of holding the doors closed ?
Would you be willing to accept a lower selling price ?
Thank you,
Charles
For a tarp that doesn't have Linelocs, my preference is to create a 4-6" loop of shock cord and larkshead it to each tie-out point. This allows some 'give' if you trip over a tie-out line so you don't rip the tarp. Then I attach 6' of Lawson Glo-wire or other cordage to the shock cord. I have watched YouTube and learned the tautline hitch to adjust the tension between the tarp and the stake.
Cord running below the doors -- the door management system I use consists of shock cord and some Paracord breakaway buckles. These are not included with the tarp...it's the tarp by itself btw. You can send me a private message to discuss price....thanks.
