We now have our beautiful Scamp trailer covered with a new Cal Mark Cover. It was a nightmare to get it on correctly. If you have experienced this debacle too,me have a fix for that! Roll each end of the cover from each end, having two rolls that meet in the middle. Lay end over at midpoint on top of the Scamp. Then, just roll it out middle to front, middle to back. Made it easy to put on!

Cal Mark Cover
We have a new Cal Mark Cover for our 2015 13 Scamp. I'm not very happy with it! It is very baggy. Flaps in the wind! Fits like a generic cover. Water collects in the part that turns under the camper. There is enough room under the top area for an AC unit but we don't have AC. We even sent them pictures of our Scamp roof. O'h well!
Don't usually hear much negative about them or their customer service. Have you called and told them how bad they missed it?

Such a shame that it does not fit well. Ours fits extremely well. We have it all on the top of our Scamp, and it fits well. Contact them, as their customer service is outstanding.

I did contact Cal Mark. Sent pictures too. Their response was that they make the covers big to make it easier to put on and take off. Cal mark suggested I should try tying the cover using a "shoelace" crossing pattern under the trailer. I'll try that when the weather improves enough lay under the trailer for an hour! I still feel that our cover is bigger than it needs to be. They did say that if I was really unhappy about the fit they would refund my money. At this point I'm not sure what I'll do. Also Cal Mark says I should put grommets in the cover's low spots to act as water drains.
We just received our 2016 Scamp 13'. Considering a cover, as we have no covered parking for it. Will a CalMark Cover scratch the body? Any experience appreciated :)

Not to worry. These covers are extremely well-designed and well-made and I've found their customer service department to be very responsive. Yes, they're expensive; but, I've considered it money well spent.
My 2015 Scamp 13 has been well-protected for five Southern Arizona summers and monsoon seasons and the cover has held up very well (better than expected). No issues, to date and the trailer is stored in an uncovered parking space.
As to the fit of the cover, my Scamp has been spec'd with roof-mounted air-conditioning (again, Southern Arizona...) and awning and the cover fits perfectly (like it was made for it; go figure...).

The Cal Mark cover is a great investment to protect the Scamp. Expensive they are, but they are made great. In no way at all do they scratch the surface. The material is sunbrellla and is wonderful . It has gone through strong winds this summer and has not budged. Customer service is also outstanding. You shall not regret getting a Cal Mark cover.
