The first Yellow Cat
I have to seam seal the ridge but I just had to get some air under this thing.
It took me about 10 hours or so and lots of concentration.

That's indeed very yellow.... No stealth hanging for you!
Very nice skills!
Very nice and very...umm...yellow
A word on the little bit of slack I'm seeing in the pic - don't be afraid to tension the crap out of that thing. I can see you reinforced the corners, and assuming you made the tie-outs as per my directions as well, it'll take a LOT of punishment. A tarp that big is going to have some stretch to it - so if you want to get that nice, flat, taut pitch the cat curves provide, don't be shy with the tension!

Nice job!
If you put a smiley face on the sides, everyone will have a nice day. Just kidding.
I actually think the yellow is appealing, but not stealth.
It would be hard to lose your campsite with that tarp.
Looks great Jazilla. I have always liked yellow.

Yellow was the last sil at Walmart before they got ride of the fabric section. BB, I pitched it with 550 cord just to see it up. I had been looking at a pile of yellow all weekend. I do have one question. What length trip tease do you guys use on your tie outs?

I use 9' all around. Longer than most people. But I have had too use almost all of the length a few times. Then again I was on a big slope and do not want to pitch my tarp close. I usually have the excess length in a daisy chain.
Is that too much to ask? Girls with frikkin' lasers on their heads?
The hanger formly known as "hammock engineer".
I use 6' on the corners and 10' on the ridge.
