It has come to our attention that due to the fine tolerances between the rear sealing patch and lifting tabs in some cases a small leak could occur. We have found that if the patch is slightly out of alignment during production it doesn't bond to the fabric of the tarp correctly. This then means drips can form from the moisture wicking through the stitching. We have found this to be extremely rare and are now checking to ensure any faults are found before they are shipped to you.

"Just in case we've missed anything we'd advise you check all the lifting points of the tarp before you head out into wilds. We would hate it if you spent the night with a drip on your head. In the unlikely event you do find a fault we'll be happy to exchange the tarp for you. However if you don't want to traipse down to the post office you can simply use a small amount of silicon to seal the patch to the tarp.
We have informed the factory and alterations are being made to future deliveries but it will be several months before these will arrive at our warehouse."
This was what I remember the issue was about in the other forum.
BTW green (kelp) has sold out so only blue, orange, yellow or black left. Kelp won't be back for a good few months.
