I've got a 2014 177, and I've noticed that every seam in the bathroom has been caulked EXCEPT the seam directly around the shower pan. Is that because it will give a little anyway as you stand in it? Or is that an oversight and I should caulk it?

No, don't caulk it, it need to flex, and if any water gets behind it, it can get out.

That's what I thought. It has that overlapping lip and I figured the pan comes up behind that so there is a way for it to run back into the pan. So as long as it is draining properly, it won't ever get high enough to be a problem. Thanks.
