In this video, we tackle a major disaster in our RV: a severe underbelly leak that completely ruined our insulation! Join us as we show the extent of the damage, share our troubleshooting process, and discuss how we're planning to fix this mess.
On top of that, we'll share the stressful experience of driving our 60ft 5th wheel along cliffside mountain roads and the challenges we faced getting water in Williams, Arizona. It's been quite an adventure, and we're here to share it all with you.
Whether you're a seasoned boondocker or new to RV living, this is a must-watch to avoid costly repairs. Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more RV boondocking adventures and DIY projects!

I had to take my BP watching you drive through the tight S-bends with that huge long RV! Cheers from Chris in Australia

@SailingLifeonJupiter 3 месяца назад

We got away with it this time…phew. Cheers Chris

@spacemonkey-yj7ss 3 месяца назад

screw that. Jupiter is looking pretty good right about now.

@SailingLifeonJupiter 3 месяца назад

We are looking forward to including him again. But no time soon.

@100BigMack 3 месяца назад

I would consider closed cell foam board when you replace the insulation. It’s needed for heat protection too, that black top will heat things up.

@barrypierce9100 3 месяца назад

That strap may wear a hole in the tank they say a 5 wheel is like a 7.5 earthquake going down the road....take care friends😊😊

@hurtback3467 3 месяца назад

The gray tank should not leak into belly it should be sealed. If it is overfilled it will just not go down drain and fill shower pan. So you have a leak on top of tank someplace…

@briansmythe3000 3 месяца назад

That's a good point 😢

@SailingLifeonJupiter 3 месяца назад

Think you’re right. I’m suspecting shower to tank join… belly will be coming off again when I get a chance.

@Useless_Knowledge07 3 месяца назад

I shared this last week!

@Useless_Knowledge07 3 месяца назад

@@SailingLifeonJupiterplug shower drain, fill shower pan with water. Add food coloring and check for leaks. If none evident, pull plug, go under belly with flashlight to find leak. No leak, check shower drain trap u shape pipe fitting and make sure lock nut is tight. If no evident leak. Run water from shower. Now check under belly while water is running. Sometimes leaks only leak when water is running!!

@hurtback3467 3 месяца назад

I believe when it says no trucks over 40’ means semi with 40’ trailer. On semi tractor trailer the wheels are on the very back of trailer so the wheelbase is much longer and will cut corners more. Your trailers wheels are close to the middle so in reality you have the wheel track of a 20’ semi and trailer. for almost all double line highway roads your trailer is gonna be ok.

@SailingLifeonJupiter 3 месяца назад

That makes sense. Hard to interpret what they mean except for literally. We got away with it!

@TTM-GEB 3 месяца назад

It would have been really something if it tasted like saltwater 😮

@SailingLifeonJupiter 3 месяца назад

Hehe, looking forward to tasting salt again.

@NickCal304 3 месяца назад

YOU can do it Captain ! 😊

@jeffalexander544 3 месяца назад

I love the 28’-30 ft fifth wheels. They are very roomy these days Thanks for another great video! 🥂⛵️⚓️

@Itsa_Mea 7 дней назад

Looking at your GPS Map screen, the road looked like a plate of spaghetti. 😂

@SailingLifeonJupiter 2 дня назад

It was pretty curly! Always an adventure. Cheers

@MrJerobona 3 месяца назад

Don't you wish those fifth wheel could have rear steering? That could be great!

@theTeslaFalcon 3 месяца назад

Those length restrictions are on the trailer ONLY, not including the tractor. IOW, no truck with trailers over 40' such as my 53' dry van. It doesn't matter if I'm driving a day cabs or a condo sleeper which would increase my overall length. Your overall length is 60', but your trailer alone isn't 40' long. Both FedEx and SAIA trucks were day cabs pulling 40' pup trailers. Overall length ~60'.

@SailingLifeonJupiter 3 месяца назад

Ah good to know. Woulda made less stress had I known. Cheers

@theTeslaFalcon 3 месяца назад

@@SailingLifeonJupiter No. I still get nervous when going up and down mountains fully loaded and on hairpins like that. Gravity doesn't sleep. And in the other lane could be an idiot. Performance anxiety helps improve your performance and keep you looking out for the worst-case scenario and avoid it. Overconfidence is a killer.

@StanleyoftheSeas 2 месяца назад

Funny I watched you sailing during the pandemic and just wondered this morning what you were up to. I'm in Boston if you ever make your way over here. Started my own channel because of all the RU-vid I watched during the lockdown.

@SailingLifeonJupiter 2 месяца назад

Ah..welcome back Stanley…yes, Jupiter2 is moth balled for now.

@stanhelinski1 2 месяца назад

@SailingLifeonJupiter I'm sure she misses you brother. Safe travels. Hit me up if you make it to Beantown.

@theTeslaFalcon 3 месяца назад

So first you say, "I have no interest in cold weather camping." The very next episode is ... COLD WEATHER CAMPING in Arizona.

@SailingLifeonJupiter 3 месяца назад

Ya, who woulda guessed! Hehe, cheers TF

@russmarkham2197 3 месяца назад

your dog is so well behaved. I feel like you should have bought a C class RV not a truck and fifth wheel. But I guess every option has its drawbacks

@krisnace 3 месяца назад

They're talking more like about tractor trailers that are hauling doubles not a truck pulling a camper

@robertlaird6746 3 месяца назад

Yup, the snow is beautiful but a PITA at the same time. I'd rather be sailing in the tropics.

@TTM-GEB 3 месяца назад

Don't try that at Vermont Smuggler's Notch - Fines begin at $1,000.00 and can increase to over $4,000 😂 Vermont State Law states that single vehicles greater than 40' in length, or combination vehicles (vehicles with trailers) that are greater than 45' in length, are prohibited from operating in the Smuggler's Notch segment of VT Route 108. Fines begin at $1,000.00 and can increase to over $4,000 for a second offense.

@SailingLifeonJupiter 3 месяца назад

Ooo… see! I hope they have somewhere to turn around!

Hi love your channel but you no you can get little ladders for little people just joking sorry about your Leek pal good channel 👍 👍💯💯💯💯🐾🐾 love your dog to 👍

@briansmythe3000 3 месяца назад

Who's Idea too bye such a big Caravan 😮 lol

@SailingLifeonJupiter 3 месяца назад

Certainly has its challenges, hehe. Cheers

@ezekielcade4205 Месяц назад

You should review your warentee paperwork. I'm most cases you violate your ENTIRE Rv warentee by traveling with fluid in any of you tanks. More importantly, blackwater is considered a hazardous waste and you need special signage and permits to transport it.

@DudeUSA 2 месяца назад

With all the troubles you’ve had with that 5th wheel ( not to mention cost of the RV and the truck) I wonder if finding a live-aboard marina for Jupiter on the west coast (if there are any) wouldn’t have been more economical? Just buy a car for exploring and save a buck.

@krisnace 3 месяца назад

When are you guys getting back on the water

@SailingLifeonJupiter 3 месяца назад

Likely another year or so. We can’t really do both. Reckon we will be done RVing after 1 more summer.

@jimmydaniel8752 2 месяца назад

The insulation isn't just for the weather it has a lot to do with noise and the floor when u walk

@andrewfournier8817 3 месяца назад

have you considered building an aluminum rv?

@SailingLifeonJupiter 3 месяца назад

This thing IS Ally frame…very thin stock tho and horribly built.

@andrewfournier8817 3 месяца назад

@SailingLifeonJupiter Yeah, American RVs look cool, but they are flimsy and poorly thought out, by and large. Small issues cause disproportionate problems. Bad roads do, too, which they should not. At least the trucks aren't bad.
