What part of NC coast? You may or may not be in a flood hazard area.
I don't have a permanent TT but have 2 Mobile Homes that I rent out on the NC coast. Both are within 1 mile of the ICW but not subject to flooding and not in a 100 flood zone. Unless it it a cat 5 hurricane, direct hit, then they will likely blow away before flooding, so I have no flood insurance on them.
Can you even get flood insurance on an Rv? Just asking, don't know, never checked on it.
On the skirting, I would look into mobile home skirting if it will work on your TT. No need for a 2x4 frame if it will. Here is a link to something like I have used although I buy mine a a local mobile home supply store. You can buy it by the piece there. The skirting comes in 12' pieces and you cut it to needed length, fits together like vinyl soffit and you just need to put it in the bottom track and secure it at the top ever so often. I use vented skirting so the moisture is vented properly. You may or may not need heat depending on whether you drain the system when not is use and where you are located.
