   Thanks mcarter.  Nothing is wet right now.  And we just had a ton of rain.  All the wood is dry, but because the lining is just hanging all along the back, the part that is exposed has had some slight water damage, probably when driving in the rain/wet highway.

	That is interesting. I had issues with a wet floor bottom on my 2015 178. After getting the pod out of the elements, I traced mine to a leaking spoiler. I allowed it to dry, and then Eterna bonded my spoiler ,top and sides. This is my first season with the new seal. Appears floor is staying dry, I'm talking underneath. No apparent issues looking at it from outside at camper level. Also rear pass thru was not wet. I didn't lose any bottom side lining, it was wet. Nothing apparent inside of Pod. All the moisture was on the underside at rear, in my case. After you have deduced where the moisture is coming from there are several good sealants you can use on Pod bottom. Noting will work until the water issue is resolved.

	I recently purchased a 2012 R-Pod 177. The underbelly lining is no longer attached in the very back on the floor and thus there is some water damage all along the back floor of the camper. Nothing too serious at this point as this is where the pass-through storage is located. However, I would like to try to repair or at least enclose the bare wood (again along the very back wall). Anybody else experience this and/or repaired this with your R-Pod? I don't know where to be begin trying to possibly try to attach something to the existing underbelly lining and then seal it against the back of the R-Pod. All suggestions welcome! Thanks!
