Hi, I'm Martin and my family and I just bought a 1984
Bigfoot B17 trailer. I had been looking at
fiberglass trailers for a long time as something I would like for my family camping adventures. Mainly because I live on the west coast of Canada on Vancouver Island also known as the "wet coast" and I've always thought
fiberglass trailer are the least prone to leaking.
So we decided to bite the bullet and buy a used camper that came up
for sale at a reasonable price. The only thing is that most
fiberglass trailers here sell quickly and a person doesn't have much time to investigate it thoroughly before having to make a decision. I was able to give the trailer a look over before we purchased it and despite some of my intuition telling me to walk away we bought it!
Obviously it is a 36 year old trailer and is showing its age. However, I am fairly apprehensive I won't be opening up a can of worms when I start to repair/maintain our new unit. I am sure I wiil be leaning on these forums heavily going forward. I have long looked on here for advice and inspiration about all things fiberglass and I will now likely be posting and asking question s about all things fiberglass camper.
Nice to meet you all
