How many second hand Huntech Flys or Bivvys do you see for sale?
How many Hennessy Hammocks do you see? Cold, have to try and keep your gear stacked under them dry, can get wet if the fly is not pitched perfectly, they are only good with a larger fly over the top and an insulation pad. If you are taking all that into the bush you may as well ditch the hammock and use the pad and fly!
I gave one a good trial over half a dozen trips. The last trip I just used my pad and the small hammock fly without the hammock and it was twice as warm and comfortable! Those sill tarps are 1/4 the size and weight of the smallest hammock available and much more versatile.
