Been working all day on the Avion. Just came in to colapse. Very bummed. Moved stuff out of the dinette area to place some foam board in the plate covering the old HWH as it is a source of condensation. Went to pull up the reflectix insulation that is over the wing and was met with completely soaked plywood....argh..... Had just sealed the drivers window when I noticed the caulking had pulled away from the skin. Sure enough the same had happened awhile ago on the passengers side and had gone unnoticed partially due to the reflectix. It is approved at a moisture barrier. I can attest it works well for that as this had gone unnoticed for awhile. The rain would leak into the wall and then come out on top the wing under the reflectix.
Gary it may also be condensation . Just got back from a rainy weekend , temps 30 to 40f . Things stayed pretty dry with some venting at the roof and the range hood when cooking . Where it wasn't dry was all around the dinette where the cushions were against the wall and the same for the mattress , When I pulled them away for a while they dried out . I have to come up with a solution because I want to be able to camp in the cold and wet . I can see why many Avions rot out the wings and bunks .
