I had a leak in the center of my TL 4, opposite the entry. I found it was rain splashing up onto the seam that divides the floor/bathtub, under the window. Seam sealed that, and was good to go.

I have a six year old 4 person andI have developed a leak. I set it up before the season and a two day soaker left about 1/2 cup of water on the left (entering) side right near the wall. So I sealed all the seams. A moderate rain storm with 20-30 mph wind on our mid-June trip left a cup or so of water on both sides near the wall. The water is close to center, front to back. The fly is guyed out properly. I use an innie so no big deal but it bugs me. Thoughts?

Close the skylight.


If there’s no obvious wear, try resealing the seams.


I’m thinking it has to be more than 6 years old. It’s been quite a few years since they were made. The defect is likely in the fly.

They still sell them, I've been thinking about getting a new one to replace my old one.
