If you note my profile, I too owned a Kiwi 17A. Actually purchased it on e-bay .... it had been sent back to the plant to have water damage repaired, so it was a bonus for me. Great trailers, if they were maintained the way they were supposed to be ..... and I blame that on the dealer, sell it to you, and see you later. Buyers should have been informed the importance of checking/resealing roof caulking! That's why there arte so many Kiwis with water dameage
