NEW ADVENTURER MODEL now Includes a rear door. The doors are also a new shape (see photo's and explanation further down page) included in the price. The canvas also has an additional wax coating on the underside of the canvas. This gives the canvas the strength of 17oz canvas without the weight, and makes it extremely waterproof. We decided to add this coating as many Adventurer tents are used every day of the year by safari type companies and as permanent accommodation, and often in the north of Australia during the wet season. This additional coating in combination with one of our storm covers makes the Adventurer tent possibly the most tear resistant and waterproof tent on the market today.

many other upgrades included in the price.........

Our current model camper trailer tent, the “ADVENTURER” has been rigorously tested in the various conditions found throughout Australia. From the dry arid desert of Central Australia, to the humid wet tropical climate of Northern Queensland.

The “ADVENTURER” is even used by Geoff Corry (One of Australia's most notable Fishing guides) and his team at BarraBase (www.barrabase.com) in the Northern Territory, click here to read more about Geoff and others who rely on Austrack Campers...

To withstand such harsh conditions, it is vital that the material be extremely water resistant, can be fully enclosed to repel dust, and most importantly be manufactured with additional reinforcing on all stress joints including double stitching throughout. This new 13oz Rip Stop Canvas Camper Tent is also far superior to conventional canvas tents. (see explanation below). At a size of 17ft x 15 ft total covered area, there's plenty of room for the whole family. It weighs in at 150Kgs and is light enough to be towed on a 7ft x 4ft trailer behind a small to average sized family car, and for those intending to go off-road there is a unique cover provided to totally seal off the tent from exposure to dust and rain, particularly when driving.

The “ADVENTURER” can also be set up by 2 people in 5 minutes (tent only if zipping off annex roof) or 15 minutes the complete tent, and comes with "Easy to follow" laminated instructions. This new “ADVENTURER” model incorporates many additional features as standard equipment and not as extras, which enables us to offer you a top quality, fully optioned, complete package at a very competitive price.

WHAT IS AUTHENTIC “RIP STOP CANVAS”

The canvas incorporates interwoven “rip stop” reinforcement threads in a “crosshatch pattern”, so the material resists ripping or tearing. Other rip stop products such as a nylon rip stop are used in the manufacture of hot air balloons, yacht sails and spinnakers, parachutes, and even Nomex protective clothing for riot police. Authentic rip stop canvas was traditionally always too expensive to incorporate into camper trailer tents and was primarily used in military tents throughout the world. Advances in technology and increased manufacture abilities, has now led to a more competitively priced product.

There are many different designs and qualities of Camper Trailer Tents on the market today, and often the price dictates the quality, similar to any product. However, there are certain specifications whilst little extra cost at manufacturing level can make the difference between a trouble free and comfortable camping experience, for many years to come, and a short lived camping nightmare.

Throughout the years in this industry as specialists in Camper Trailers and camper Tents, we have listened to what our customers have to say, their ideas, comments and suggestions. We welcomed feedback.

As our tents are used on a daily basis by Camping Companies, Tour Companies, and Safari based adventure Companies from Cape York to the Tiwi Islands, by families in the school holidays, and retirees on extended holidays, a culmination of all this feedback led to the final design of our new “ADVENTURER” Tent.

Below are photos of new shaped door on our showroom camper, and customer's camper.

The doors (front, rear, and annex wall door) are also "U" shaped instead of the usual "D" shaped doors. There is a canvas "U" shaped door and a micro mesh "U" shaped door at each entrance, both with double zips. The benefits are as follows.

The doors are easy to roll from the bottom to the top and vice versa rather than from right to left, where it can take two people to roll across due to the size of the door.
All of the 3 doors are "U" shaped and have a sewn in valance above them to deflect the rain, and stop the doors getting wet.
The doors are much larger allowing easier access (no tripping over the door edges) and allows much more airflow.
The doors all have a canvas strip which covers and protects the zip, stopping rain getting into the tent. With the original "D" shaped doors as seen on 99% of tents, the zip is exposed to the elements, and if it rains heavily it can leak into the tent particularly through the rear door and annex door.

All PVC is now dark grey in colour instead of beige as this does not show dirt or marks easily.

The panel can also be rolled up and toggled back.

The ladders do not get in the way whilst sleeping, and are much safer than heavy steel if they happen to fall to the floor, particularly if small children are around. Supplied with zipped canvas bag.
Heavy Duty 25mm hot galvanised tent poles (exterior).		Poles are hot galvanised instead of the standard cold galvanised and upgraded to 25mm for additional strength and protection from the elements to avoid rusting. All supplied in a canvas bag.

Many extra pegs and guy ropes supplied in case of loss or damage.

Exterior travel cover 500g/sqm very heavy duty PVC, including zips and Velcro.		Off road zipped cover. Simply zip off the top half of the cover to set up the tent, then zip back up again after folding away the tent. The bottom half of the cover is fitted into aluminium sail track/annex rail which is screwed to the bed base board, giving you a total dust and water seal protecting the tent from the elements.The front and rear of the zip has a velcro seal over it to protect it from dust getting into the teeth. The cover is also manufactured oversize to allow for the safe and sealed storage of clothes, sleeping bags etc underneath it. All too often with conventional travel covers the tents are ruined by water and dust getting up underneath the cover, and the tent is left to rot in storage till the next camping adventure. We believe this is one of the most crucial points to ensure longevity of a camper tent, and crucial if travelling on unsealed roads. The cover also includes 6 tie down straps, with sewn in strengthened buckles.
Spare Parts Kit		Full compliment of spares for all removable parts.
Set Up Instructions (created by the team at Austrack Campers.)		Full laminated instructions (won’t blow away) including diagrams, and photographs for easy set up.

Water Test

We recently conducted a simple water test on our canvas. We made a suitable frame, then added 100 litres of water which is equal to 100kgs in weight. We allowed to sit for an hour and not one drop of water seeped through showing exceptional water proofing abilities. After one hour water started to slowly seep through which was inevitable due to the volume of water and weight and the fact that all cotton canvas breaths. It is certainly unlikely that you would ever be able to have this amount of water concentrated in one area of any tent, but wanted to take the test to the extreme to highlight both strength and waterproofing abilities.

Second Annex roof and poles available

This addition includes a canvas roof that is the same physical size and material 13 oz rip stop cotton canvas as the existing roof with 16 x 25mm galvanised poles (same as original tent annex with spreader bars included), 8 x guy ropes and pegs. Everything is supplied in their own zipped canvas bags. The second annex roof can be used for additional shade or to utilize the two sets of annex walls. Because our annex walls are in three sections and are interchangeable with each other there are many interesting set up combinations as seen in the photos below.

Storm Cover/Roof Protector

Custom Storm Cover / roof protector covers the complete roof area of both the tent and annex roof, and comes complete with 12 steel buckles ("D"rings) sewn in for guy roping down. It is made from oxford polyester 210D which is top quality, and is used in the manufacture of roof top tents.

The cover enables you to camp under trees without worrying about sap or bird droppings etc, which ultimately may ruin the canvas. the cover can cool down the tent by up to 5 degrees, and will also allow you to be out in a storm.
