Opus Hopey for it's got heaps of storage that's protected by new and improved seals to keep dust and water out and because it weighs less than 1,400 kilogram you can happily load it up and still tow it comfortably with almost any four-wheel-drive and SUV nobody are indees their trailers like a focus they take them on the toughest tracks into.

The most remote campsites you can't be out of it for weeks come back and constantly improve to ensure it's perfect for you and your family the air opus pretty much sets itself up in under three minutes into prove it watch while I set this up wild I drink a beer it's a tough gig this one.

Well there you go folks sorry about that I was actually mistaken it only took me half a beer to finish the secret of course is the ultra heavy duty triple layer air beam technology which is as tough as the tires on your vehicle only deflating when you release the valve to pack it up the worst part about leaving a magical campsite like this one right.

Here is putting away the camper trailer but not anymore by opening these valves the air opus inflatable camper almost packs itself up I can fold the ends over and literally drive off you won't do that with any other camper now prepare to be blown away by the interior features I'm telling you this camper trailer is a.

Game changer the air opus is proper tough luxury you just don't see features like these in many campers the trailer features two fold-out double beds with really comfy mattresses that can zip up separate to the seating area which is perfect for relaxing out of the weather there's also a full stainless steel slide-out kitchen with a four-burner.

Stove as well as an electric pump fed tap for washing up this is massive inside and easily sleeps six look at much living space there is if you want to test out your four wheel drive or camper trailer the old telly track in Cape York is the ultimate testing ground there's water there's blood there's blood many of you wouldn't push a camper.

Trailer it is hard but we did it to show you what the Opus is capable of the body of the air opus is made of aluminum so it's superlight and it's got independent suspension and a poly block off-road hitch which allows it to articulate and handle the bumps and knocks a lot better  with nearly a decade of camp and.

Manufacturing experience Bluewater have really drilled down the details in this latest issue of the popular McQuarrie within a minute the first looking through this camper its attention to detail in the build process that impresses first up how do you improve and a good thing it's an interesting question and it's one that Bluewater.

Have answered by improving an already top spec standard OneTouch operation  improving hallmark innovations like the snake track drag train system so that you now have all your services bundled up neatly no stuffing about with gas connectivity I can set a Billy to boil within a minute of partners.

 another class-leading attribute of the macquarie is its tinted interior the canvas the frames the zip quality are second to none the queen bed area and the dinette are as good as it gets but the real luxury are these super-sized windows the picture frame views the gentle breezes will bring the.

Atmosphere of a beautiful campsite indoors and really isn't that what it's all about let's see what the judges have to say  the Bluewater Macquarie Ford fold really up standards this year what did you make at the back I mean it really was a big footprint with a really well presented.

Camper that was just so well thought out you get a five-year suspension and structural chassis warranty and a five years is pretty goodness is probably as good as anything you're going to get in the industry you get a three year warranty on the water pump and the water system five years on the canvas they were obviously doing it because they're.

Confident they've got a great product I like the roominess and openness of this and that Macquarie really makes use of that with big windows all the way around it really has a nice really nough sebat it yeah I really really liked the Macquarie forward fold and I was impressed by the some of the smaller details the one-handed Ridge latch slide.

Was really great watching Merced off and everything it was really quick I love the way they've just gone through and looked at every little aspect of it and said how can I improve on this rather than saying are near enough good enough and so that willingness to adapt and to constantly improve and refine I think really shows in the finished product I.

Found it really easy to tow it sort of followed the car really nicely and you know they handled all the tracks that we took it on really well oh you've got good stock standard sort of component tree and top of the range componentry one that towed well and all those sorts of things and yeah the attention to detail the base model then where they.

Start a lot from and what they've added to it has just made a really good package I reckon and they've got the storage space as well which made a bit of a difference you've got power and you got water they're the two key components for living in the bush you've got plenty of boats that 2:120 a GMC solo the whole lock stock and barrel you certainly live.

Off the grid for a while that's for sure with it it is a pretty impressive payload about 900 kilos that's a hell of a lot of goodies you can stuff into the cab but that's for sure yeah I think it's really good value for money yeah given what you get for a time in 35 grands a lot of money but for what you get it just ticks all the boxes you're.

Not gonna have to go out and spend extra money adding things it's the whole package there but bottom line is I don't have to even talk about how good a value for money it is because they sell on plenty of them so let the market speak for themselves it seems Bluewater have managed to improve on an already excellent camper.

With this latest issue Macquarie you
