Thanks

Thanks for all of your comments. You've given me plenty to think about. I've got an Alaska trip on the bucket list and may put this off until then.

Floor Replace

Yep - we had to have the linoleum replaced under warranty because they (a) didn't blow out the debris under it before applying the linoleum in the main cabin, and (b) used a piece with a seam down...

Good point. I'll keep an eye on it. It seems pretty solid so far. Certainly as solid or more solid than the rest of the original manufacturing. :-) Thanks!

Exclamation Held together with Duct Tape and Bubble Gum?
