Greetings!

Hi all. I found this forum by looking for deck ideas for our Sandpiper. I have two doors on the passenger side so no luck finding a deck for ideas.
Let me back up. My name is Kathy and my husband is Warren. We just bought our Sandpiper about 5 months ago with the intention of taking it to the coast. Well we found some property and have it all cleaned up with electricity and are ready to take the 5th wheel down and begin enjoying some peaceful times with family along with fishing of course. The steps aren't the greatest for standing on to open the door. We are trying to find deck ideas that are simple and easy to move for when we winter our trailer or for when there is threat of a hurricane.
  • by the way, we are really new to this. I stayed in the trailer one night to try and figure out how everything works, most of it I learned from forums and youtube. It will be interesting when we clean the black tank for the first time. Right now it only has water in it. Never have used the potty's, just flushed them a few times to see what it was like. :)
  • Hello Kathy and welcome to the forum. I can't help you with the deck plans but you will find the answer on this forum to about any question you have. My though would be just to level the RV and then just build a deck to match. :)

    Believe me, there ain't nothing gonna happen to you that has not happened to someone else before.
  • Welcome to the forum, as stated above you will find lots of info and help here.

    I found this on you tube that may help you with your deck.
  • Lumber, hammer and nails, Oh my.

    Make sure you have access to the awning and compartments.

    Enjoy.
