My NX 250

[Holger]

I'm going down the coast after the school holidays and doing my first kayak camp up one of the rivers, I should be able to take more than usual because the kayak can hold a lot more than my pack, throw in a fishing rod, camp stool etc all the luxuries!

Where Are you going mate? Have been a fair bit of kayak camping. Go kayak fishing & camping at Fraser Island again in early November. Can't wait.

Would be very happy to have a look at your tropical and UQ.

So let's meet.

I wouldn't cut the bag off, will kill your resale.

I'm thinking about Jerusalem creek, I hear it's nice and quiet and hardly anybody goes there and it opens up at the beach so it should be a good spot if I can find good shelter from the wind.

It's a long weekend too so I'll probably go for a paddle on Monday if you want me to bring down my UQ for a look, I'll aim for high tide whatever time that's going to be.

Jerusalem creek is nice. Worth a trip.

Sorry have to work on Monday. I work in QLD, no holliday there....

[phan-tom]

Thats no good, but good for me because all the QLD people will be at work and have their stinkboats in the garage so I can paddle without being run over or smoked out! But I think the Brunswick River gets pretty busy on public holidays anyway (and its school holidays)...

I work monday to friday but I have weekends off and the occasional wednesday so maybe we can do it next weekend, I think its the 8 & 9th?

Maybe you should break free of the attachment to the tarp by using this modification:

Watch the last video on the above page.
With this you can use any tarp you want and break freeeeeeee!!!
I did this and it works great!

With the NX 250 the tarp is always independent of the hammock. No need..

I'm happy to see that the comments are positive. I am giving serious consideration to the NX-250 with the Z-liner. Has anyone seen the camo one in person? Does it look good? I like to blend into the woods I just cant decide if I like the pattern or not..

Thank you in advance

Sorry for the delay in posting...I don't frequent the forums as often as I used to. Here's a photo of my NX-250 in camo, so you can get an idea.


Can't comment on the z-liner, since I don't own them/it. I use a Thermarest inside when it gets really cold (by my standards).
Sorry for the threadjack...

Looks good!
