Happened to be on Hennessy website a few days ago and the youth Scout hammock wasn't listed there at all. Went back today and the Scout is back. Looks like a new model. (I bought a Scout last fall on the Hennessy October Odds & End sale for my friend's son who camps with us.) The Scout I received has a green stuff sack and a printed weight limit of 150 pounds. The new model looks like it comes in a black stuff sack and the weight limit is now listed as 200 pounds. It is also described as being asymmetrical while I think the Scout I received has tie-outs on the hammock that are not asymmetrical. (Tie-outs on each side in the middle.)
Nice upgrades and the price is still $99. During the Odds & End sale there were a lot of Scouts available for $49, which is what I paid. Mine came still with tags on and looked brand new and not ever set up.
Anyone get one of the new Scouts yet?
