Southampton

Been watching the tracking for the ship, it’s at in the channel at the moment, waiting to head into Southampton. Rather them than me in the current storms we’re having ! It seems the container will be loaded on the ship in Southampton as we’ve now got the location for the container as well as the ship.

Update
While searching for some info on the container ship (APL Qingdao) we happened on a YouTube clip showing the ship leaving Southampton with our container on board…

    Wow you’re so brave! Hope all goes well down under, only found your thread as I was searching for roof tents fitted to a roll cage! I have a quick question about that, is the tent bolted straight to the roll cage if so how have you done it?

    Thanks

      We used some universal brackets from Protection and Performance to mount the tent. We could have had some mounts welded on when the cage was made but opted for the universal mounts and I think that was a good move as we can have been able to move the tent around a couple of times to find the best position.
      The brackets clamp onto the cage with 2 bolts and provide a tag for the tent to mount to. One of these at each corner and it’s sorted.
      Now the positioning is just right the brackets are left clamped to the cage even when the tent isn’t bolted to them.
