Nolan, I'm not holding my breath for Northwood to get back to me. I called, left message. Nothing. Don't really care at this point. I have the internet. This is likely my last and only NW product. The wife REALLY wants a Northern Lite. Yeah, I know. They're not perfect either. lol. Don't hesitate to contact me if you need any info.

I am having a hard time trying to understand how you have such a large gap. Do you have to cut material to fill that gap or can you just fill it with sealant? It looks like it needs more than sealant but I cannot tell how deep the gap is or what is behind it.
I suppose I could use some kind of filler/rod. It's just that section and further above that have a gap. The rest of the panel sits flush and is solid. I packed it with sealant and it's now firmed up nicely. Not gonna worry about it. I'll just keep an eye on that area.
Thanks for all the replies. I just wanna get this thing sealed and screwed back together and be done with it.
A big thanks to SidecarFlip for his pressure test suggestion. Although, it turned out not water damaged, who knows how bad it could have been years later. At least now it'll be sealed up good with a quality polyurethane. I'll work my way around the rest of the camper with another pressure test and add sealant as needed. That leaf blower is my new best friend.:)
Just passing on some knowledge, what a forum is all about. Leaf blowers... not just for blowing leaves....
Not bad for burning out stumps either. I've done a few of those on my property in the past. A 55 gallon metal drum with the ends cut out and a port for the blower in the bottom, a bag of cheap charcoal and some time gets rid of a stump like magic.
We make a big investment in a TC and then without any way to check the seal soundness, it slowly rots away on us.
You are good to go now...:D
