here is the pic we have just taken.trying to get all the pics on here so u guys can see all sides.She may not be the prettiest barth out there but we love it.lol.We are going ot get a custom paint done when we get a chance it will be dedicated to the troops overseas as I have 2 children over there now fighting so we figure what better idea to show our support.


That's going to look mint when you're finished. Please keep us updated; you could start a thread in the "Improvements" forum. Smiler

I would strip the paint, give it Lee's Nuvite shine-up and call it The Toaster.

I had a 19 ft class C SOB that wasn't nearly as cute nor as well laid-out as this.

I'd show off the fact these are all aluminum...re-paint some sections and buff the rest up to a shine. I'm a Canuck, but I love the "Red, White and Blue" theme. Smiler

As far as the water problem, tell us what you have, what you're doing, and what isn't working. Somebody here will get you through it.

I had a heckuva time sorting out what water valve did what. I turned on the pump and all sink and shower faucets then all the taps under the kitchen cabinet and the ones near the pump. I beleive there's one main drain for the fresh water tank and two (for hot and cold water) that drain the rest of the plumbing system. You'll know which one's are the drains by looking under the Barth. There's also one that isolates the electric water pump when you're hooked up to "city" water.
Hope that helped.
