FWC by the sea

[valkraider]

I see a lot of pics of FWC (And ATC as well) campers on or near beaches and the ocean.

Anyone worry about the salt and our like 90% aluminum campers?

Yes, but I also worry about a super volcano at yellowstone ending life as we know it. Haven't seen any damage yet

Crap. Now I need to add that to my list. My wife thanks you.

Valkraider,
Since I live about 100 yards from the ocean and my camper is on and outside 99% of the time I have some experience with this subject. The only real issue I've found with rust/corrosion is on the jack brackets and some of the screws. After more than 4 years I am amazed at how little the salt air has actually affected the camper though I do wash it regularly. Bottom line I wouldn't worry about any camping trips to the beach, you will be fine.

We live at the beach and truck and camper outside 100%. Keep it washed at least every two weeks
and you should have very little problem. I do look it over often and address any rust.
