Our 2020 16' Scamp is right out of the box, so we're still learning. We live in Decatur, Georgia (near Atlanta) where the winters are usually relatively mild. We plan some winter season camping, so we don't really want to chemically winterize, then un-winterize, then winterize again, etc. We have emptied all tanks to the best of our abilities, so there shouldn't be much liquid left inside, though there may be some. What if we just turned on the furnace to 70 degrees or so on nights that the temperature will drop below freezing?

I purchased a 2000 19' Scamp recently that my wife and I are fixing up. After a long, sustained rain last week, I noticed that there was some water under the rear dinette windows on the fiberglass bench frame (photo 1). The rat fur was also wet here. I also noticed that there was water and some green mold on the rubber sealing at the bottom lip of the window (photo 2). I know that the standing water on the bench frame is a problem, but what about the water on the inside of the sealing? Could that just be from condensation?

In changing out the door handle/lock on my 2017 Scamp, I discovered another area that would eventually cause damage to the trailer.  The old lock did not have a gasket or any sealant around the perimeter.  When I removed it there is a hole about 1" diameter thru the fiberglass and into the plywood backing.  The wood was wet and soft which means that water has been getting into it.  I would expect this to eventually cause damage to the bottom of the door.

We were winterizing our 2019 13 scamp yesterday and I got up on a ladder to wash the roof before covering it. I was suddenly aware that the window above the stove area and the right rear window were never caulked fully on top. The center 50-70% was completely open to the rain and dew since being built. There are drain areas in the window frame but are not exposed to the outer caulked area. We never noticed water inside but it would likely have been trapped inside the walls and Now I do not know how to go forward with drying it out properly.

This is not a maintenance question but I can't find any other topic that applies. I have problems setting up the rear table on my 2000 13' Scamp. On Scamp.com/ask-scamp they have a section "setting up rear bed/dinette" that states "Lift the table and pull the leg down until it snaps into place." The leg will not pull down. There is a "U" shaped bracket and 2 very rough spring loaded pins where the leg joins the table. These pins feel like they were supposed to have some sort of plastic knob over them. They can be pushed in but it is uncomfortable for the thumb to push on them.
