I haven't had any luck finding the shower pan you mention. Other than finding one from a tear-out/rebuild, does anyone know of a source? At this point, if I could even get one it would be great. That extra storage space would be worth silver and gold!!

I think most residential shower pans are going to be too large. They're about 9sft

Matt,

If I understood Rusty's post correctly, the pan in question would have been about 5-6' long so it could be split lengthways and then trimmed on the ends to fit into the front or rear curvature of the body to make overhead shelves as we see on post #1 and which I asked about later in the thread. The original 1983 instructions that came with the Burro mention installing shelves in that way, but Burro didn't offer the stock to make the shelves from, nor did they tell where to get it (even then.) I would like to find some sort of fiberglass tray with a lip that can be put into that location to store fairly light objects like pillows, sleeping bags and towels. Efficient allocation of space in that little 13 footer is always an important consideration.

Froggie

PS Nowadays I can find that 9 sq ft shower pan, but it is only 3' X 3', so it isn't long enough.
