New to the site and about to buy a scamp 13'

Hi Y'all,
I'm trying to buy a 13' scamp and would love some advise on what to look for to make sure it will last.

Thanks,
Alex

Does that mean you are looking at used Scamps? Somewhere on this site is a Buyer's Checklist, or inspection sheet.

Others are experts, but look for a solid feeling floor with no signs of water damage.
Look for signs of water stains, leaks, damage on walls, ceiling, upholstery
Check that all appliances & mechanical systems work.
Check all electrical systems, lights.
Check all plumbing systems.
Consider taking the propane tank from your gas grill to the inspection, in case they have no propane.
Check door and window seals & functions.
Check the outer shell for major cracks, damage, & repairs.

If you're using a computer/browser, our Document Center is under the "More" tab, top right of every screen. The Buyer's Checklist is there.

Good luck with your purchase!
