New 6.1 - What's this?

Carabiner · Aug 29, 2023

Hi, getting to know our new 6.1. Figured out most of the 'extras', but confused about this one. I'm assuming it's for putting the 'big bin' in, but not where or how to attach it? Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere (likely), but a bit of searching didn't bring anything up, probably because I don't know what it is!

Thanks in advance, Terry

Party favour? :embarrased

Sorry got no idea except maybe a gas bottle tie down. Don't think I've come across that yet in my Coast.

As Corradobrit said - it looks like the gas bottle retainer from a Grand California.

I did a Google picture search and the results were definitely wrong - you don't want to know

That looks the same as the Gas Bottle strap I had in my T6.1 Beach Camper.

it is the gas bottle holder strap, absolutely sure, I have a similar one in my 6.1 Beach Camper, got fixed on the bottle, although a little tricky.

The OP has an ocean according to his profile - you don’t have a bottle restraining strap on those.

right, didn't know that, but the item pictured is definitely the strap to use it with the smaller R904 Campingaz on Beach.
might be there accidentally, as an accessory for a Beach somehow landed in an Ocean...

Yep, I think that's it, thanks!

I came home from a week away on business and found one of those under the bed. The only difference is mine had a ball in the middle. Must be something to do with these super new mattresses they sell this days. A comfort thing im guessing.
