Two questions .... is it the front or back?
First question, my hubby is a sailer and wee are trying to figure out what is front and what is back (who would say the bathroom (head) is in the front)?
Secondly, are we welcome at Rallies to come and learn? Our "Pearl" is still a little in the rough, and I don't want to be shamed!

Last question first -- 'cuz this is the easiest! Many of us go through the phase where our Airstream shells offer few amenities beyond being an aluminum tent. A rally is the perfect place to get a pat on the back and discover questions to probe next in the quest for your customized vacation traveler.
I must confess to being puzzled by your first question. Fore would be toward the hitch. Aft would be toward the rear bumper. Isn't your bathroom aft? Help me out here if you would please. Thank you! Glass Goddess -- must be an interesting story...

Also no port or starboard. You have streetside and curbside.

Aye, mate. The bow (forward) has the LP tanks... the stern (aft), the bumper. Starboard has the door (hatch) and port has the port holes (windows). Topside has the A/C and below the axles. The head may be located amdships or aft.

Roger is correct in all cases. Your hubby stands on the deck and climbs the ladder to get in your trailer. He also looks out the portholes, if Roger didn't cover that.
