That's not something I could say for certain without testing.
The gaps are closed on calendered materials. Here's a side by side of 1.1 Ripstop Poly Cal vs Uncal.

I figure I'll just answer here ;)
In order to provide better UPF a material needs to be tightly woven and/or woven from a heavier yarn. The best place I've found for an explainer to this is...
Hey all. So I just found out that my backup will not able to do the raffle this year.
Any takers? I have last years spreadsheet and contact info for all vendors, and last years canned email...
Hi all! My apologies for my absence of late. My life has been completely taken over with work.
Some of you know I’m the lead graphic designer and Customer service lead for Ripstop by the Roll....
Everyone stay safe down there. I'll take snow over hurricanes any day.
I’ve never seen somewhere on the east coast as flat as the pine barrens. I hiked several miles during the winter hang, and never went more than +/- 10’ in elevation according to my phone. Usually,...
If you won something vendor donated, please drop them an email, message on FB, or a PM here on HF.
If you need contact info, don’t hesitate to drop me a PM.
It was great having Dan and Dave...
Here’s hoping you can make one in the future! We’d love to have you.
Correct on the total! $1933
I passed the money off to Alison, and she and Chaaz ( who we missed dearly this year) will be making the hand in soon!
Jerry, we missed you too. I hope both of you...

I have a tato stand I brought for display during the raffle (It is not in the raffle) if you want to take the guess work out for the night. I can have it set up and ready to go.
Man, I hope you make it. It’s been 2 years since we’ve seen you!
I was referring more to someplace to buy raw seafood in general. Like an actual fish market. Kinda figured given the industry up there, there must be a place to buy clams, salmon, striper, etc that...
Is there any good seafood market (IE, raw fish) in the area? It’s something I always mean to look for.

Sticker mule covered our old stickers. But I bought these because everyone loved the prints so much.
There are only 10 of the big one, 45 of the small one.
I did order a run of new stickers for 2018. I made the order a week ago, and I still don’t have a shipping notice. They may or may not arrive in time :(
Here's the rundown on the official donator list, in no particular order. We do have a few people asking for someone to Proxy them. If anyone is willing.
This list does not include personal...
Concerning the ‘where to hang’. Tom will give us a rundown of any sites in our area that hang been reserved. Please respect those people, and the site they paid for. Otherwise, as long as you’re...
One week!!! Well, at least until we’re there.
George at Loco Libre sent me these pics and a tracking number today. A 20° Ghost Pepper TQ using the Coral snake pattern from Ripstop by the Roll....
I've got a Biolite Campstove with grill and cup with the extra coffee press that I'll bring up if someone lets me know in advance they want to buy it. With the donations, space for me is tight, so...
Alrighty, A bit of an update here for those of us who don't use Facebook.
Some of our vendors have hooked us up with discount codes in addition to donations.
Jacks-R-Better: 10% off -...
We’ll be there Thursday night as well. I’m bringing a Flat top campchef if you’d like to join us for breakfast Friday AM. I even picked up some real Burbon maple syrup :)

We’ll be there LATE Thursday as well. You’re welcome to join us for breakfast Friday AM
What Grey Eagle failed to mention is he lives pretty close to the hang. So NJH2H, even if you’re coming back through days after the event, you could pick up the stuff
I’m fine with someone winning by Proxy, as long as someone is on site to claim the prize. I’m not going to be anyone’s proxy, as I’ll be to busy running the raffle. I’m sure someone will be willing...
The raffle will be in Chinese format. I ask that anyone leaving for any of the stuff on Saturday have any private donations to me before they leave. It’ll take me time to make the bags for those...
Thanks Dawn. I’ll have stickers of the Lighthouse hang logo, which were donated by Stickermule. I’m also considering picking up some of the ‘Claws’ design. We’ll have patches as well. If you check...
You guys official? I’d like to get you in the promos I’m doing for the hang. I messaged D on Facebook the other day with no response.
Tom, is breakfast still going to be offered this year?
I threw together a quick image for you guys. I’m not using it for anything other than Raffle Promotion:

It wouldn’t. I haven’t narrowed down a time frame, but I’m thinking end of August wouldn’t be a bad idea. Before school, before really cold nights (50-60 nights) and after blackfly and skeeter...
I beg to differ. I’ve got multiple people from as far south as Florida, and many more from NJ/NY and Mass who make the drive up to Maine. And our hang coincides with the first week of school for...
We’d love to have you! (If you can’t make it, you can send just the dog). We love dogs ;)
Without a doubt it will synch with school. I won’t be able to make the next 2 Lighthouse and Lobster hangs as my kid transitions into high school.. that was my main drive to seriously look for...
Hi all. For those of you who don’t know me, my name’s Justin. :laugh: On top of working for Ripstop by the Roll, I’m also the guy in charge of the raffle for the Lighthouse and Lobster Hang.
I...
NJH2H - Any chance you can grab me a 12 pack of adult beverage in NJ? I can PM the details. As far as I know, this particular cider only comes as far North East as New Jersey. :D
Concerning the...
I see it more as a "I won something" type of deal. Other than NJHeart2Heart, I'm not talking about people who 100% won't be on site.. I'm thinking more in terms of a group running late. If we start...
RAFFLE OPTIONS:
Ok, I need quick votes from people on these 2 options:
Winning by Proxy: Yes or No
Raffle Format: Chinese Raffle (like years 2-3 One bag for each item) or The "One bucket -...
I actually have to put some things to a vote for the group.. I've been advertising this event to multiple groups, and winning by proxy has come up a bit. I'll address it in a new post. here in a...
Why put all the effort into making a totally one-off pattern, that will never be used again? This is why:

Check it out.
This print is on it's way to Dream Hammocks for a hammock, and Cedar Ridge Outdoors for a Tarp.
As always, these are total one off prints. The winners will be the only people...
I have not heard from Tom concerning Breakfast or the Rec room for the raffle yet. I'm not sure what format we'll be running the raffle in this year. I've gotten a lot of people saying they like...
We're usually set up for the raffle around 5pm on Saturday. Right now, the official time isn't set in stone. There have been talks of a whale watch, Paddle trip, etc going on earlier in the day. ...
Wow, I do apologize for missing that. It’s been a a long weekend. We took Ava to her first real concert last night, and it was a 5am Saturday morning to 2 am Sunday morning day for me.. then back...
You should hang around for the raffle :) We’ll have several quilts from Hammock Gear and Loco Libre, a custom printed tarp from Cedar Ridge Outdoors, and a Dream Hammock. I have several other...
Hi Dave, this is without a doubt one of the most kid-friendly hangs I've ever been to. Full bathrooms, showers etc. There's lots to see and do in Freeport as well. No need to reserve a site. Sign...
You can email me at [email protected], or via live chat right on our site. It’s up 9am-1pm EST Monday’s and 9am-4pm Tues-Fri.
Our kits for the net less hammock have some great videos,...
Yes that is a Dream hammock. Randy and Deanna would be more than happy to make one for you. Or I’d be happy to help you figure out how to make one.
