The trailer is very rugged and simple to operate with heaps of room inside. Particularly good cold or wet weather for a family with a tribe of kids.
The ability to carry spare fuel/water/gas on the sides of the trailer is useful. I carry two gas bottles, 120 litres of fuel ( 20L for the generator ) and 60 litres of water.
There is enough room in the tubs underneath to carry enough supplies and cooking gear for an extended trip away. I also stow the generator, chainsaw, BBQ hot plate etc under there as well. The two fridges work well as fridge and freezer though with cryavac meat they can be both at fridge temps to reduce power consumption. The Solar panels are great and I can get away without using the generator at all in sunny weather as long as the rechargable fluros are pumped up on the solar during the day. I have seen 14.5 amps come out of the panels.
The only two issues I have had is in wet weather the corners of the veranda must be dropped down to drain the roof to prevent pooling and the other is the hinges are found wanting if I add to the wieght on the front tailgate of larger outboard. Mine is an older Mariner.
I wish I had the camper 15 years ago as the teenagers have lost interest and no longer come camping. Jen and I now rattle in it so are planning to to get something smaller like a Kimberly Karavan:):). We don't need 3 Queensize beds so you may see it on the market.
Check out my photos in the gallery.
