Nice! Glad you came to a decision and are on the path to camping good times.

I had a custom top made for my custom camper (only option), and had the work done at a local Marine Fabric specialist. I was lucky that he was interested in doing the job as he put it "It's better and way more interesting than doing AFB top". (AFB = Another ******king Bayliner). His words not mine...

I recently saw these on the Vancity Vanlife channel. He is going to be selling them on his http://vantoys.ca store. Pretty slick units, not sure how much they are, but probably inline with a marine product (or likely cheaper. Looks pretty slick and includes bug screen/shade too...

Thanks man. Appreciate it... and totally agree.

Totally agree on the tiny amount of AF needed in a smaller setup. I used to have a 23' travel trailer with a full bathroom (shower, toilet, sink) and a large 60 gal fresh and 3 x 30 gal grey/black tanks. I used to use about 1.5 gal to purge all the lines. The low point drains helped, but there...
