I'm very interested in this topic as well as I am 6'6 lol. I have contemplated installing a skylight in there though.

I have not used the shower in my coach. Even though there is a raised skylight, the stall is so short that I had to keep my head inside the skylight. head bang

When I removed the cracked shower stall I found they had installed the shower drain trap above the floor! Good to prevent the trap from freezing but raised the floor of the shower about 4 inches. When I redo the stall I will put the drain below the floor to recover the headroom. Hoping to make the shower usable again.

When I finish the engine swap I'll get back to the shower. to be continued...

Great info, was your skylight stock or aftermarket? In the 75 there is just a single fan unit....so any recommendations would be great!

1) sort of... better than many people could.
2) NO!
3) Yes, by finding more and more ways to store things in there as a store room

24" X 35" X 65H essentially a marine head.
As steve described, floor is raised. Stepped design of molded shower/bathroom floor and toilet base does not lend itself to being changed.

Never really noticed in our Regency. Our shower is even with the floor. I am 5'8 and Cindy is 5'4 so we would probably not have much trouble in the other Barth's. There are some advantages of being short.

Sherrie doesn't even think about using our shower... She has to take her shoes off just to stand up in the trailer.
