UPDATE WITH PHOTOS TO ORIGINAL POST: Replacing Minnie Winnie Cabover.
I made the first post to this forum of the "leak saga" almost 3 years ago when I was greeted to a soaked cabover. I had been the new owner for barely three weeks. Winnie had always been in Arizona and that is where I drove her home from. I removed the foam in the front part of the bed and began attempting to fix the leak. The fixing has evolved to a management of as I've enjoyed some 23 states and 20,000 miles. What's interesting is that on my most recent 6 month trip and 4 months at Glacier National Park, I had no problem. I did a lot of taping before I left. Some of the tape was torn off in the 4500 mile trip and the leak has returned. The photos in this link were made this morning. The wetness is new from last night. I had about the same wetness yesterday, dried it and awoke to new wetness. The exterior photos will show that all of the cabover seams now have Eternabond and I've removed one window and the inside trim of the other to check for leaks: none. My question is still: Where is the water coming in from? All comments, questions and input appreciated. Happy New Year.
