Hello does this come with a tarp or will I need to purchase one? (also what size tarp would I need. Also has anyone had any rips or holes at all?

Unfortunately, the Buccaneer will not come with a tarp. The overall dimensions of the Buccaneer are 9' W x 14' L, so you will want to purchase a tarp of this size or greater. If properly used and maintained, rips and holes are unlikely. If there were to be a hole or tear, this slide comes with a 90 day warranty to be replaced at no cost to yourself in that timeframe.

It will work just fine. It the same material as the blue tarps you find in the big box store just heaver duty. I cover my boat with it in the rain and use it for camping and it has held up very well, still doing its job.

the dimensions say 9'x7' so anything larger than that would work well...we use a standard 10'x12' tarp. hope that helps!

Go to MyTarp.com. I bought a 24"x48"x24" snug-fit tarp for my ice cream cart a couple of years ago for $24.95. They will have what you need.Hope that helps.

All room walls and the 'front door' have cover flaps that zip closed from the inside for full privacy. We haven't been in extreme weather but it's a really great tent for the price, should do well in reasonable rain/wind. I always make it a practice to take along a couple tarps (one under the tent) duct tape and extra tent pegs. Btw I Recommend investing in 10 or more strong (metal) tent pegs and a hammer or hatchet. The ones that come with the tent are cheap, break easy. The 'patio' is great, we had a small fold up table & 3 coolers in there with room to spare.

It does not have a cover. Unless you have a flatbed, this is not needed in truck bed. It will fit, bunched around wheel wells, but again, not needed. I use on a flat trailer for small/loose trash, dirt, etc. Then cover with a 6x8 tarp. It's lasted 40-50 trips and no rips or holes.

I used a 10x16 tarp, but it needed to be folded a little so it was completely hidden under the tent. The perfect size would be 15x6 if you could find it.If any part of the tarp sticks out from under the tent when it is raining, the rain will roll down the side of the tent onto the tarp causing it to pool up on the tarp under the tent. The bottom of your tent will get soaked!

It is a pretty standard tarp, so I think it might be alright. However, it is not really "heavy duty," so would not recommend using it in rough weather extensively.

These tarps are sold in several sizes. We have some in different sizes so be sure you order the size you want.

I always put a tarp under any tent, this one has a good bottom but it is not worth risking a tear not too mention it helps keep it clean for when you go to put it away.

Too expensive to order one from Shelter Logic, it is actually cheaper to buy a complete new unit from PepBoys. Best bet is to go to local farm supply or Tek Supply and order a tarp with grommets. Make sure you leave ample space between the tarp and frame, usually 4-6" for the bungee cords.

I would use a tarp of something that will help protect the bottom of the tent from sharp sticks or stones from poking a hole in bottom. Also helps in keeping ground moisture from soaking in to bottom of tent fabric. Also keeps bottom of tent clean and free of dirt and whatever. Doesn't have to be an expensive tarp, one of those vinyl tarps that you buy at a hardware store will work

If you want to use a simple flat tarp you can get one for 10 dollars or less on Amazon or at Wally World. They have grommets on them so it will be easy to stake it.

Hi Max,All Aqua Quest tarps have heat-taped seams, so you don't have to worry about it. As far as reinforcing the already taped seams, I can definitely find out for you.CheersBen - Gear Out Here

Yes it is tarp material. Water shouldn't come in unless there was a tear or holes.

I purchased this tent about six months ago. Tent does have a lightweight floor (like the material tent walls are made from), not a tarp. Hope this helps!
