    top entry Hennessey?

    I cant find the thread now, but someone mentioned a top entry Hennessey that Hennessey sold? Its not on their website, or at least I couldnt find it either. Does anyone have one and how much different in configuration is it from a bug net attachment? Thanks, Bill

    Although the possibility has been mentioned for a future product, to my knowledge HH doesn't currently offer a top-loader. However, all is not lost. You can have ANY Hennessey converted into a top-loader very easily and economically. Check this (long) thread for details.

    I had 2Questions and his wife convert my HH Hyperlight and I'm absolutely thrilled with the results. Great folks to work with!

    Could you possibly be referring to the no-net HH's that sometimes show up in demo/returns sales?

    I have the no net Hennessey Explorer dulux. Just like the regular, only the bug net has been removed. (You can actually see where it had been). I got it because I don't like an affixed bug net, but wanted to try the bottom entry. Personally, I don't like the asym design, so I just use it when taking someone with me. Or I take my Eno double nest, or one of the trek lights... maybe I need to think about selling one of these extras! Interested

    well there you go-i've been accumulating HH and was just wondering about removing the netting completely from my expedition and having my wife sew the slit.as far as bugs go i was thinking this could be my early spring and fall hammock and use my explorer with s/s for summer and winter and maybe next winter cave in and do the zip mod
    so my question with removing the net other than having no net is there any drawbacks to going this route you can think of? thx
