    Thoughts on winter dust cover

    another thought. I have an RV cover on the travel trailer that breaths and keeps the UV rays from baking it. these are basically a big box shaped cover. Got it on Amazon for about $100 a while back.

    dont forget the tube for the rigging hose. on aluminum ones, that is welded in. on your fiberglass one, that would be glassed in.

    Parts Diagrams for Four Winns
