My trailer is sitting in the driveway, I put a pink skirt on it in the fall (see my blog) to keep the snow out, but we've had such a bad winter that it has just served to keep the water (ice) in. I'll take some picts tomorrow and post them. It amazes me how much condensation happens to the inside of the trailer from all the precipitation and freeze/thaw cycles. Just another reason to use the nyloboard.

BTW, I volunteered at the Milwaukee RV show last weekend working in the Ewald Airstream area and noticed a cut-away display showing current airstream construction. They use a wicking barrier on the top of the floor at the perimeter. Plenty of condensation in my '67 for the plywood floor to wick away.
