Gap in side wall.. plus a lot of other 'mess'




Gap above sidewindow...



2 dips in the front roof.. one in the middle just forward of vent, goes gently to the front wall. the other dip is a localised one over to the right...

The dry side.... like most of the van the fibreglass has come away from the walls in places..


Nice up here :)


This photo shows me the roof coating is worse than I thought... I haven;t been up here for a few months :O .. I am not sure yet what the ridge is, traversing the roof.. guessing some good old aluminium

Fancy a dip ..... ?I have one...

All the seams on the van have been covered in this nasty looking but in some cases functional clear sealent..

Tuesday 3 March 2009

Being blown all over the place tonight, strong storm hitting the other front corner... somehow managed to light the pilot light on the windward side! Umbrella destroyed and the storm is not going anywhere :O ... first leak easy to spot! dripping on the bed below...







Good news, aluminium framework! the wood in the far lower corner is completely soaked, we have had no rain for days... it looks like I can just re panel all of the inside walls, dry the blue foam insulation, and then seal it all up.... I never liked the painted ply anyway, wood would look better up here....
