Full details
The Trakker Tempest RS 150 Social Cap is an essential accessory for dedicated carp anglers who own the Tempest RS 150 shelter and need to expand their living space. It is designed to create a large front porch area perfect for socialising or gear storage, while simultaneously improving the shelter's thermal insulation and reducing condensation. While it significantly enhances the functionality of your setup, it is important to note that it is exclusively compatible with the Tempest RS 150 model and adds additional weight and setup time to your kit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the Social Cap, attach the frame to the existing Tempest RS 150 anchor points, securing the 16mm poles for rigidity. Use the provided tension strap to ensure the fabric is pulled taut, which is critical for water run-off and preventing pooling. Always use the included T-pegs to secure the porch base in windy conditions. Regarding compatibility, this item is strictly for the Tempest RS 150. For care, ensure the cap is completely dry before storing it in the provided Aquatexx zipped carry bag to prevent mold growth. Wipe the aluminium poles clean if they have been in contact with mud or silt, and avoid storing it while damp for extended periods.
