    There are a few owners with that tent.  Search “Clamshell galley tent” and the first entry lists the thread.

    I purchased the Pahaque galley tent.

    The first thing I want say is the one that was sent to me was not constructed properly. Presently I'm working with the company to rectify this problem.
    They are going to make a completely new for me, haven't received it yet, but hoping they are going to standby their word.

    Now let me say that this tent is an essential addition the clamshell trailer. It provides wind protection while cooking, an additional room especially when there is an abundance of biting insects.

    I understand there are other options out there, but not sure specifically constructed for the CS-S.

    Will update if the properly constructed tent arrives and get a chance to use it.

    I know of one person who had one for about a year, and after trying it for several campouts, threw it in the trash. She had trouble with the stick on keder rail, she said it was hot in there even with the screens open, and after several days of heavy rain the roof support caved in. Also, if you get one with the floor, you have very little leeway for leveling up or down and having the floor lay flat. Some campsites the backend of the clamshell will just be too high for the floor enclosure.
