Built like a boat. The fiberglass is the structure. There should be no wood structures in these. Bigfoot is one brand.
Molded fiberglass campers and boats both need additional structure beyond the fiberglass skin. Whether or not there should be wood present, it is in fact present in a 'foot until it rots away.
That's right you have to go back to the 70's to find boats made of solid fiberglass. these days they are mostly built of an inner and outer fiberglass skin with a foam or honeycomb core in between. There may be some very expensive large yachts built of solid hand laid woving in their hulls but, are very expensive.
