Replacement tents, Replacement

[Perchpearson]

Does anyone know if they still make the Shappel bay runners and where I could find a thermal replacement tent?
I think these huts are great for running and gunning,I wish Clam or someone would come out with something similar,Any thoughts.

They don’t make them anymore. It’s a shame. Best run and gun there is. I have seen some thermal covers for sale in the states online. But $$$. I always check Kijiji. Never know. May get lucky. I’d love a thermal cover but even my regular stays toasty with a little buddy.

Eagle Claw has taken them over, and the Bay Runner is still shown on their website.
I’ve had a Shappell 300 for several years and love it…a Buddy heater will keep it toasty warm. And you dont need anchors..you are the anchor with the built-in floor.
The only thing I dont like about it is its a pain to pull across ice with any depth of snow. I built a take-apart raised base for it out of 1x2, 1x4 and x-country skis, and that makes it much easier to pull in snowy conditions.
