This is our 7th R.V, and second motorhome! This older one needs some T.L.C, after a couple years of inactivity... but having owned a National previously I was pretty certain the Bones were good. First Job was to tackle the wet and deteriorating walls below both passenger and driver side windows. I removed the rotted pieces and the seats and dryed out the area for 2 days with a heater, I Found almost matching Luan Board, and trim at a local Windsor Plywood and used Pl adhesive to glue the new panels in place. I'm happy with the final look...almost cant tell the difference.
Great post ... thanks for adding some photos as well.

We have similar water damage on the drivers side on our '05 Sea Breeze. Your photos and description gives me insight as well as more courage to open up the wall and repair the damage. We've already addressed the water issue, so next up is the demo and repair.

2labs..good luck with your project..one thing i forgot to mention... just in case you hadn't thought of it already , is have a brace ready, so when you glue the wall it will force it in place...i used 2x4s on the vertical ...and braced them with horizontal peices agsinst the dog house.
