I just brought home my first Scamp and saved a few $$ by getting a reasonably nice 1984 13'.  There was a pretty solid "80s" musty smell in the camper so I decided to tear out the ugly carpet, figuring it was the issue.  Well it was stinky but then I saw the water damage!  It seems water leaked through the table connections to the wall and down under the carpet.

Another Newbie inquiry...sorry,

We are looking at the possibility of driving up to Seattle to visit family.  Been told we can plug into household current and fill our fresh water tanks once we arrive.  My question is where do you dump your black and gray water tanks before heading home? We've read that you should not drive any distance with full tanks but where do you dump?  What kind of facilities are available on the road? 

Hi all,

I'm getting the Scamp ready for the summer season and have flushed out the antifreeze from the water system.  I know all about the process of sanitizing the system prior to taking a trip, but our first trip will not be until July.  I'm thinking a full water system with a small amount of added bleach (like a couple of teaspoons) would be better than an empty, but invariably moist, system.  I would then drain that water and sanitize as usual before leaving in July.

One of my 12 volt lights above the side dinette isn't working.  The bulb works in the other fixture so the problem must be further up.  What tools are necessary to remove the fixture to see what might be going on?  Everything is plastic, and I don't want to break anything.

There is a leak somewhere in the line between my city water tank and the hand-pump faucet. Water has therefore dripped (very slowly) over an extended period of time onto the Subfloor, and I'm wondering if any of y'all have any advice on replacing just a small section of the subfloor from underneath without having to replace the whole thing. The damaged area is localized to a ~1' x ~1' section of subfloor right by the passenger side rear bumper of the Scamp. Any and all advice is appreciated!
