We have investigated transport through single walled carbon nanotubes deposited by AC electrophoresis at low temperatures. The samples comprise source and drain electrodes as well as two independent gates. Measurements of current as function of the gate voltages give evidence that transport is due to a bundle of a few tubes which open up several parallel conductance channels. We present a sequential tunneling model in which three quantum dots are connected in parallel to source and drain. Including capacitive coupling between the dots leads to transport characteristics which are in qualitative accord with our measurements.
