Well I have not done an entry in awhile !!! SO ... What is new !!! holiday In august so not much done that month ... I used 3/4plywood for my floor marine spar vanished and bolted down with elevator bolts..a little tricky to get the ply under the channel but I managed .. then I took off all the interior skins ... and pulled the remain insulation out of the walls and roof yuk...Clean the walls and roof and looked for water stains on the inside of panels... This helped me to find the leaks ... most of the came from the vents no vulkum at all on the backside of the rivets ???and a few leaks from the drip cap over the windows....
replaced a few loose rivets and removed vents ,fixed missing rivets and resealed them ... Then I used tremgard 640 brushable to seal inside a nice thick coat .. note for future use of tremgard dont get it in your hair !!!! and if you do ,notice it before you hit the couch overalls , gloves,eye protection,ventalator oh ya a hat !!!! or it time for a hair cut !!! Anyways I got her all sealed up (besides the bottom channel ) and then it rained for a few days !!! I passed the test ,nice and dry !!! so now what ... rain then uh snow !! so I started my first layer of insulation in the roof . I glued strips of 1/2 foam insulation then 1 layer of double bubble
reflective foil insulation then pulled a few wires ,glued another 1/2 foam and them one more layer of the bubble and taped her off really well ...so then it snowed... I feel like I am racing the weather !!! !
